Thailand’s Constitutional Court ruled that protester demands to reform the monarchy violated a provision in the military-drafted charter that bans any move to “overthrow” the royal institution.
Following the Constitutional Court’s ruling that the call for monarchy reform is treasonous, activists burned a model of the Democracy Monument in front of the court building as a symbolic act of protest.
Thai constitutional court ruled that three leaders of the youth protest movement calling for monarchy reforms had violated the charter with their “hidden intention” to overthrow the constitutional monarchy.
What people are saying?
Ace of Octane Such a shame for a country that called itself a democracy but arrest and punish people who want change for the treason. While the people who actually did the coup get praised and political power.
dapa What is it with the “hidden agenda” in protesting activities anyway? Speeches on monarchyreform are as transparent and straightforward as possible. And who it is actually if not the authorities that always acts and issues orders in such a sneaky way.
