Mr Korkaew had his lawyer Jessada Chandee submit the bail request this morning, reasoning that he wanted to join the nation in giving His Majesty the King a birthday blessing on Wednesday and attending the garden party at Government House.

He also said as an MP he was scheduled to join the House committee on economic development in a study trip to Italy and other countries nearby between Dec 8-14.

The court turned down the request, saying that there was no guarantees the red-shirt leader would not repeat his offences.
