The Criminal Court has approved bail for lawyer 'Tum' with a bond of one million baht, on the condition that he is not allowed to travel abroad unless permitted. Lawyer Decha stated that the release will occur tonight.
On 11 Jun 2026 GMT+7, reporters reported that after the Criminal Court sentenced Mr. Sittra Biabangkerd, known as “lawyer Tum,” to 5 years and 12 months in prison in the “Jae Oi” case and ordered him to pay damages of 72.5 million baht plus interest, lawyer Decha Kittiwitthayanun said he is currently in the process of filing for bail at the appellate level. He expects a bail bond of around 600,000 baht, but if Sittra posts a one million baht bond, it should be sufficient.
Most recently, the Facebook page “Lawyer Relief” of lawyer Decha Kittiwitthayanun posted that “The Criminal Court has granted bail for lawyer Tum with a bond of one million baht; he will be released tonight.”
Meanwhile, reporters reported that after relatives submitted a petition along with land collateral valued at two million baht, the court considered and approved bail for Mr. Sittra, defendant number one, setting the bail bond price at one million baht. The condition prohibits him from traveling abroad without court permission.
Further updates will be reported as they become available.
