Thai Rak Thai supporters rally in Bangkok after court bans party

Police were engaged in tense standoff with 3.000 of anti-coup demonstrators in Bangkok since last Thursday after the country's Constitutional Tribunal ordered the former ruling party Thai Rak Thai (TRT) to disband in a landmark verdict Wednesday evening.
The demonstrators were rallying at the outlying area surrounding the Royal Plaza.
Small incident happened between the police and the protestors, when demonstrators tried to move the barricades. The small clash ended after organizers were seen calming down the emotional protestors, who retreated back behind the barricades. No injury was reported.
