A court has convicted five Thais of illegally entering Cambodia in a high-profile case. The Thais were given suspended sentences and ordered freed.
The five received prison sentences Friday of 90 days each, but were credited with time already served and the remainder suspended. They were fined 1 million riels ($250) each and allowed to return to Thailand.
They were arrested Dec. 29 after crossing into northwestern Banteay Meanchey province on charges of illegal entry and trespassing in a military zone. The five had gone to the border in connection with Thai nationalists' claims that Cambodia is encroaching on Thai territory. One defendant was a member of Parliament.
Two others with them who were charged with spying are scheduled to be tried Feb. 1.
