0601CoupReaxSunday

01 JUNE 2014 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A Thai soldier in an armed humvee arrives at Terminal 21, a Bangkok shopping mall, to put down a protest in the mall. The Thai army seized power in a coup that unseated a democratically elected government on May 22. Since then there have been sporadic protests against the coup. The protests Sunday were the largest in several days and seemed to be spontaneous "flash mobs" that appeared at shopping centers in Bangkok and then broke up when soldiers arrived. Protest against the coup is illegal and the junta has threatened to arrest anyone who protests the coup. There was a massive security operation in Bangkok Sunday that shut down several shopping areas to prevent the protests but protestors went to malls that had no military presence. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
