Around 80 people joined the student-led protest against military coup around 11am, and rallied from Thammasat Thaprachan campus to Democracy Monument on Ratchadamnern Rd. The rally went fine without any prohibition from the soldiers. However when they reached Kokwua intersection, the soldiers asked them not to rally to the Democracy Monument, citing fear of violence and clash.
