Mr Padipat said the committee had invited four students' groups to a meeting yesterday and listened to their opinions on political issues. The groups included the United Front of Thammasat and Demonstration, the Free Youth group and a pro-monarchy group of vocational students. Meanwhile, two leaders of the Free Youth group -- identified as Ford Thatthep and James Panumas -- were arrested and taken to Samranrat station yesterday on seven charges including sedition. Police have issued arrest warrants for 15 leaders of an anti-government protest on July 18 at the Democracy Monument.
