Puea Thai party spokesperson Prompong Nopparit on Thursday went to the 11th Infantry Regiment in Bangkok’s Bang Khen area to deliver a letter opposing the directive to block the satellite signal of the People Channel television station (PTV), a satellite-based channel run by the red-shirts, to Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban.

The letter was acknowledged by the commandant of the military camp, Lt Gen Wibulsak Charoenying.

The 11th Infantry Regiment holds the Centre for Public Administration in Emergency Situations set up after the announcement of a state of emergency last night. Mr Suthep, who is in charge of safety measures, is the center’s director.

Mr Prompong said Mr Suthep’s order that the Information and Communication Technology Ministry directed Thaicom Plc to block the PTV satellite signal was illegal.

He said the order was in violation of Articles 45 and 46 of the charter which protects freedom of expression and prohibits political interference in any news reporting.
