US told: Stop meddling in lese majeste

About 200 supporters of the royalist Siam Samakkhi group rallied outside the United States embassy in Bangkok on Friday, demanding that Washington stop interfering with Thai laws, culture and domestic affairs.

The group's representatives handed a petition letter to the embassy officials about 3pm.

In the petition, the group also demanded ambassador Kristie Kenney to apologise for her comments.
