The Centre for People Missing During the April Demonstration - set up by the Student Federation of Thailand (SFT) - has closed down: all six people whom relatives reported as missing have been found and returned home.

"We don't want to accuse the government but we also don't want to believe that nobody really died. But not even the Pheu Thai party has managed to prove there were any fatalities [amongst red-shirt pro-Thaksin Democratic Alliance Against Dictatorship members] so we must conclude as such," Suluck Lamubol, co-founder of the centre and an executive member of the SFT told The Nation. "In fact I am glad that nobody died - at least in our understanding. They have all returned home and I am glad."

Some members of the centre were reluctant to bring closure and simply wanted not to discuss the findings, or even report them to the public; but Somluck said a report would be distributed to the media soon.

Soon after the April riot which led to the death of two Nang Lerng residents and 120 injuries, the centre was set up and Suluck, a fourth-year history student at Chulalongkorn University, speculated perhaps as many as 60 protesters may have been killed or gone missing.
