A Cambodian Court has ruled that five Thais intentionally entered Cambodia without permission.

They were sentenced to nine months in prison and a fine of 1,000,000 riel (about 10,000 baht).

Since the five have served one month in prison already, the court suspended the remaining eight-month jail term. The five Thais are now free to return home.

The five Thais released today are Democrat Party MP Panich Vikitsreth, Samdin Lertbutr, Tainae Mungmajon, Naruemol Chitvarattana and Kojpollathorn Chusanasevi.
