BANGKOK — A Martial Court in Chiang Rai Province sentenced seven anti-coup protesters to six months in jail and a fine of 10,000 baht earlier this week, but since the defendants pleaded guilty, the sentences were halved and the jail terms are suspended for one year. 
 
On Monday and Tuesday, the Martial Court delivered verdicts in two cases. One involves three anti-coup protesters, led by Surirat Boonbuathong and the other involved four anti-coup protesters led by Songsri Khomkam.
