Khaosod English: Pro-democracy activists in Thailand have accused soldiers of intimidating the family of Chonticha Chaengrew, one of fourteen anti-coup dissidents in jail for leading a peaceful demonstration against the military government.
According to the activists' lawyer, Kritsadang Nutcharus, three soldiers arrived at Chonticha’s home yesterday and requested to talk to her mother.
The three soldiers reportedly told Lamun Chaengrew that they were dispatched by their commander to discuss her 22-year-old daughter’s political activities.
"One of the soldiers asked her, 'How did you raise your daughter into a person with attitudes like this?'" Kritsadang said. "Ms. Lamun replied that her daughter is a grown adult, who has her own thoughts. 'How would you raise your children?' she asked."
