rooster59 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Mental Health of 2010 Temple Massacre Witness in Question By Pravit Rojanaphruk, Senior Staff Writer Nattatida Meewangpla emerged Friday afternoon from the Bangkok Military Court. Photo: Anurak Jeantawanich / Facebook BANGKOK — Some activists on Friday were concerned about the wellbeing of a key witness in the murder of six people at a downtown temple during the 2010 military crackdown on street protests. Since she was present at Wat Pathum Wanaram as a volunteer nurse when six people sheltered inside were gunned down, Nattatida Meewangpla, has been jailed on accusation of serious crimes ranging from royal defamation to terrorism. “I am worried that if she requests tranquilizers, she may eventually not be able to communicate effectively,” Redshirt and academic Sudsanguan Suthisorn said.

robblok Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Poor woman but if she is indeed guilty to a plot to bomb the courts I feel a lot less sorry for her. Crazy of course that the royal defamation is punished harsher than a bombing plot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomta Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Spectacularly missing the point, Robblok. It's not about feeling sorry for her but about whether justice can be served when witnesses are persecuted as seems to be the case here. Secondly, it's not at all crazy that lese majeste is so harshly punished. It serves the purpose of shutting down all forms of protest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
