Man who insulted King is freed

CHIANG MAI Thailand’s King Bhumibol Adulyadej last night freed a Swiss tourist who was jailed for ten years for insulting him (Andrew Drummond writes).

Oliver Jufer, 57, from Zurich, Switzerland, was released from Chiang Mai prison in northern Thailand two weeks after being sentenced.

Mr Jufer defaced posters of the King with black spray paint after getting drunk on December 5 last year, the 79-yr-old monarch’s birthday.

Mr Jufer could have faced up to 75 years in jail. His sentence was reduced after he signed an apology.

That was a very kind gesture by the king.

No indication if he's been deported or made PNG.

Has he left the country yet, if not it would probably be a smart move to get out ASAP. The CM locals may not be so forgiving.

Bangkok Post has it online as breaking news.
