webfact Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Watch yourself! Court orders Thai held for 12 days after "fake" Covid-19 post - he is later given bail People posting untrue or unverified stories about the Covid-19 situation in Thailand may well need to watch their backs, notes Thaivisa. Thailand's tech police arrested a 42 year old Phuket man for computer crime after he posted on Facebook that he arrived back at Suvarnabhumi airport from Spain on March 18th and was not subjected to any Covid-19 screening at all. A warrant was issued for the arrest of the man described by INN as a "graffiti artist" and he was immediately apprehended and taken to Bangkok. He appeared at the main court in Ratchadaphisek charged with spreading fake stories that is part of computer crime legislation. The court ordered him held for 12 days for evidence gathering. The authorities opposed bail on the grounds that he represented a flight risk and the suspect did not object. The court said he would be held from 24th March to 4th April. However later the relatives of the man - who INN said was called Danai - then appeared with 100,000 baht in cash and the court decided to grant him bail while the case proceeds. Thaivisa notes that Thailand has strict computer crime laws and people online should be especially careful about the veracity of their posts.

Popular Post rkidlad Posted March 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2020 Ah, what about the minister who said that 100 ventilators would be donated to hospitals here? He announced it on his Facebook page and later deleted it. Will he be spending 12 days in jail? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guderian Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Is Section 44 still in force, or did they put it back in its box after the election? I suspect Prayut may be dusting it off again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very far reaching both politically and socially. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matzzon Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 It´s just a question what is deemed fake, and what really is fake. Right now it seems to be seen as fake if it says anything about the forces in power. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
