The government must help free the two Thais being detained in Cambodia prison and bring them home within three days, or face more pressure from yellow-shirt protesters, core leader of the People’s Alliance for Democracy Maj Gen Chamlong Srimuang said on Wednesday.

“We will give the government until Feb 5 to comply with the demand.

'If it fails to do so, PAD will call a mass street rally of yellow-shirts to pressure the government to take responsibility for such a failure,” Maj Gen Chamlong said.

The retired army general denied reports that the yellow-shirt people group is planning to set fire to the Cambodian embassy in Bangkok, in revenge for the jail sentences handed down by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court.
