↑ The Office of the Royal Society (2013) defines kakkhang (Thai: กักขัง) as "to force to be in a limited place; to keep in a limited place". The Office of the Royal Society (2016) says kankakkhang (Thai: การกักขัง), the noun form of the verb kakkhang, corresponds to "confinement" or "incarceration" in English. In the English draft of this code (Office of the Juridical Council, 1950b, p. 29/111), the term "arrest" was used for kakkhang.
