Panusaya has been on hunger strike during her detention along with another jailed protest leader, Parit"Penguin" Chiwarak, 22, who was hospitalised last week. Parit's bail hearing was postponed on Thursday, according to his lawyers. The groundbreaking demonstrations by tens of thousands of mostly students last year made once-unthinkable calls for reforming Thailand's monarchy, considered by many conservative Thais to be sacrosanct.
