Two other men are still at large.  The three were charged with illegal assembly by more than 10 persons, inciting chaos and obstructing police operations during the two-day visit of Finance Minister to Chiang Mai last month.

The arrest warrant for the trio was issued last month after clashes with the police in Chiang Mai.

The three men are allegedly members of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD).
