The Phnom Penh Municipal Court has rejected a request for bail for the five other Thais still in detention at Prey Sar prison, Information Department director-general Thani Thongpakdi said on Friday.
Mr Thani, citing a report from the Thai embassy in Phnom Penh, said the defence lawyers immediately filed an appeal. The result was expected next week, he said.
The Phnom Penh Municipal Court on Thursday allowed conditional bail for two of the Thais - Democrat MP Panich Vikitsreth and Narumol Chatvaratana - prompting hope that at least three others would also be released.
Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya said after the two were released that three more Thais were expected to be freed on bail today.
