A group of activists who plan to visit Da Torpedo in prison on 30 Dec invite the media and interested persons to join them.
The "Palang Ruam Jai" group will visit Da Torpedo at Khlong Prem Women’s Prison (see the map attached for directions) on December 30, 2009 at 1:30 pm. Da Torpedo's brother Kittichai will go with the group. To give Da urgent help with her serious illness, her brother will contact the prison's doctors and ask for Da's medical records to be forwarded to a specialist outside the prison.
This is the most urgent thing to do to help Da now, the group said.
Inmates are allowed to meet only 5 visitors for only 15 minutes on weekdays. As her elder brother Kittichai and an activist will visit her, three further slots are still available for the media and those who are interested.
