Use of Lese Majeste in Thailand increasing under military rule

As reported previously, the Thai military junta is using all its tools at its disposal to stifle dissent and opposition to its rule. A new report details the people who are currently charged and/or convicted by Article 112 – the Lese Majeste law. Arbitrary arrests of human and labour activists are also continuing. In addition, the military junta is increasingly using nationalist ideology and targeting neighbouring Cambodia.

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