A Thai high-profile “Yellow Shirt” movement activist Veera Somkwamkid being jailed in Cambodia for the alleged espionage charge is in good health, although he has a cold and insomnia, a Cambodian prison official said Tuesday.
Mong Kimheng, the chief of Prey Sar prison where Veera was jailed, made the remarks following Thai media’s report saying that Veera’s relatives visited him on March 4 and found he has fallen ill and said the cell where he was being jailed was “in very poor conditions.”
“He just caught a cold these days due to climate change, but he is in good health,” said Mong Kimheng.
“We have provided him with special care, and our doctor has his health checked up twice every day,” he said by telephone.
“Veera told our doctor that he has some headache and insomnia,” he said. “It is normal that he has a headache and cannot sleep because he sleeps in prison and has to serve many years in prison. “
