Veera, Boonlert ordered to meet NCPO

The military on Sunday ordered two people, including Veera Somkhwamkid, who last week was released from a Cambodian jail, to meet officers on Monday over an unauthorised gathering.

The National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) issued a statement ordering Mr Veera and Boonlert Kaewprasit to report to it on Monday.

The statement was issued after the NCPO criticised an event held at the Royal Turf Club hours earlier to welcome Mr Veera back from serving a jail term in Cambodia.

The council said the event was held without permission and it violated a ban on politically linked functions.

The event was hosted by Gen Boonlert.
