Informational

Political activist group Thalugaz plan to stage a demonstration at the Criminal Court of Thailand in Bangkok from 10:00 March 28. The purpose of the action is to express solidarity with detained activists. Previous related rallies attracted dozens of participants. The event will likely pass peacefully.

Authorities will likely bolster security around the protest site. Localized transport disruptions are probable, especially if activists occupy nearby roads. Isolated scuffles between demonstrators and security personnel may occur, especially if participants attempt to bypass security barriers or defy orders to disperse. Mass arrests can occur if protesters become overly disruptive or security forces determine that demonstrators violate any public gathering permit requirements.

Avoid the protest site as a precaution. If violence occurs nearby, immediately depart the area and seek shelter at a safe nongovernmental building. Plan for localized transport disruptions. Heed all official security and transport advisories
