Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej at 07.00 (local time) on 2 September declared a state of emergency in the capital Bangkok. The announcement followed violence between government supporters and opponents late on 1 September. Specific details are emerging, but initial reports indicate that the army has been put in charge of restoring order and gatherings of more than five people have been banned.
