The Phnom Penh Municipal Court on Tuesday morning released another four Thais on bail, on condition they stay in Cambodia until their trial.
The decision meant that only Thai Patriots Network coordinator Veera Somkwamkid remains in detention. The court cited serious charges of spying against him as a reason.
All seven Thais have been charged with illegal entry, but Mr Veera and his secretary, Ratree Pipattanapaiboon, also face charges of espionage for allegedly spying before their arrest.
The court cited the serious charge of spying as a reason for refusing bail for Mr Veera.
The seven have been charged with trespassing on Cambodian territory and intruding into a military zone on Dec 29.
The four allowed bail were later taken back to Prey Sar Prison pending their transfer to the Thai embassy in Phnom Penh, where Democrat MP Panich Vikitsreth and Narumol Chaiwaratana, who were earlier freed on bail, are residing.
The date for their trials have not yet been set.
Emerging from the court room, Mr Veera appeared frustrated. He said he would appeal the ruling.
''I will appeal to the Supreme Court. I will fight to the end,'' Mr Veera said.

You stupids comments is in the wrong column mother fuckers. Ah sucker Youn CPP no one wants to read your useless article in here. The hole world already knew ah CHHKAE CPP regimes is slaving to the Vietcong Killers.
How are these 4 any different from the other 2? 7 entered on the same time, 7 should be sentence same charges. Confused!
To all the parties supporters.
What you did here, you only destroyed your own political philosophies, structure and foundation.
This PAD Thai leader Somkhwankid is the only remaining ultra nationalist troublemaker in jail (he was the Preah Vihear protest instigator in 2008). Let him rot in hell in Prey Sar prison and we will have one less PAD trouble maker on the Thai Khmer border.
