The Department of Corrections has outlined the reception process for Boom Panadda and Got Athip Samee, starting with a five-day health quarantine during which only their appointed lawyers can visit via video conference. Once the quarantine period ends, the inmates may receive visits from up to ten pre-approved relatives. The intake procedure includes recording personal information, case references, medical history, a physical examination, and a review of prescribed medications. Corrections officials stressed that after quarantine, cell assignments will deliberately separate the two from any co-defendants or accused parties to protect their safety and meet international detention standards.
