Inequality and repression in Thailand under military rule

As reported previously, while political prisoners like Somyot continue to languish in jail, the wave of repression by the military continues. Amnesty International has released a report card for the human rights abuses for the first 100 days after the military coup. This week, more people were arrested for commemorating the 2006 coup and the military plans to move court cases from civilian to military tribunals. A recent report has underlined some of the economic inequalities that have sustained the social tensions during the last few years.

No to the military! Free all political prisoners! Organising is not a crime!
