Groups of red-shirt protesters in the upper northeastern provinces on Sunday morning converged on Mitraphap road in Udon Thani province to stop 178 policemen from joining the security forces in Bangkok, reports said.
The 178 policemen from six police stations in Udon Thani were assigned to help the police in dealing with the mass anti-government rally of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) in Ratchaprasong intersection - one of Bangkok's main shopping and business areas. The rally started on April 3.
Earlier, high-ranking police officials told the red-shirts that the 178 officers would be working in shifts with the police in the capital but the demonstrators refused to let them pass through.
The protesters also slashed tires of all police cars and criticised the actions of police and soldiers who were involved in the violent clashes on April 10.
The clashes between the red-shirts and authorities resulted in 25 deaths and more than 800 injured.
