A second application for bail by Cypriot-Australian journalist, Haris Nikolaidis, is scheduled to be heard today by a Thai court. The 41-year-old Melbourne journalist has been held now for two weeks, after his first bail application was rejected. The application is being filed by his brother, Fotios Nikolaidis and a Melbourne barrister, with the assistance of local legal counsel.

Nikolaidis was apprehended at Bangkok airport last Sunday, as he was preparing to depart to Australia. It is believed that he is being charged in relation to the contents of his book,Verisimilitude?, which was published three years ago, and which was considered to be against the regime. It was deemed to be insulting about the Thai royal family, the countrys political system and its society. His parents have appealed to Thai authorities, saying they feared for their son?s life in the prison.
