Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva yesterday continued to insist the seven Thais held in Phnom Penh on charges of trespassing on Cambodian soil "meant no harm", as the Foreign Ministry prepares to seek bail for them today.
Mr Abhisit said during his weekly television broadcast that the group had not intentionally trespassed on Cambodian territory.
They had had no intention to commit any offence nor to steal anything from Cambodia.
The seven detained Thais include Panich Vikitsreth, a Democrat MP for Bangkok, Veera Somkwamkid, coordinator of the Thai Patriots Network, a People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) splinter group; and representatives of the Santi Asoke sect, the PAD's key ally.
