Thai Patriots Network coordinator Veera Somkwamkid is “critically ill” and there is little time to appeal against his sentence, says his brother, Preecha.

Mr Preecha was commenting yesterday after a visit to Mr Veera at Prey Sar prison in Phnom Penh on Friday.

He said he found his 54-year-old brother to be suffering from many ailments and “critically ill”.

Mr Preecha said there might not be enough time to appeal the sentence against his elder brother.

He said all efforts must now be directed towards seeking a royal pardon for Mr Veera and his secretary, Ratree Pipatanapaiboon, who are both detained at Prey Sar after being convicted on Feb1 of spying charges and illegal entry into Cambodia.
