Two pro-democracy activists have been sentenced to prison by the Appeal Court for spray-painting the Democracy Monument and the Giant Swing in an attempt to draw public attention to the right to bail for a youth activist. Both were later granted provisional bail.

25-year-old activist Bang-oen was arrested again yesterday (6 April) on a royal defamation charge filed against him in December 2022, while two other activists were also arrested for spray-painting protest messages onto the Democracy Monument and the Giant Swing.
