The Cabinet on Tuesday agreed to extend imposition of the Internal Security Act (ISA) in seven districts of Bangkok for another 30 days from March 26 to April 24 at the request of the Centre for the Administration of Peace and Order (CAPO), assistant police chief Worapong Chiewpreecha said.

The ISA was first imposed from Feb 9-23 to cope with rallies by the People's Alliance for Democracy and the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship.

It covers seven Bangkok districts - Wang Thong Lang, Pathumwan, Ratchathewi, Dusit, Watthana, Pomprop Sattruphai and Phrana Nakhon.

The imposition of the ISA was last extended to March 25. The new extension will be from March 26 to April 24.
