webfact Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Rayong man claims being manhandled, hit with 3 charges over messages slamming govt By The Nation Two Rayong residents who held up signs slamming Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha for allowing “privileged” foreigners to enter Thailand and skip quarantine claims police pressed him with three charges and also injured him. The footage of two men being arrested for holding signs with aggressive political messages near the D Varee Diva Central Hotel on Wednesday (July 15) while the premier was visiting has gone viral and prompted criticism online. One of the men said on Facebook that he was charged for violating the emergency decree, interfering with security and trying to escape arrest, and also posted photographs of injuries caused to him by policemen. The two men, reportedly members of a political network in the province, had previously put up a sign slamming the government sign near the Passione Shopping Destination, where an infected Egyptian soldier had roamed freely last week. However, police took the sign down within 30 minutes, resulting in more frustration among those fighting the military’s prolonged hold on power. The decision to allow Egyptian soldiers to get around freely without the mandatory 14-day isolation, and then finding one infected has brought hotels and other businesses in Rayong back to zero customers. On Wednesday, visiting General Prayut promised the people of Rayong that his government will do its best to rebuild people’s confidence in safety at the province. Meanwhile, some are defending the government and commending it for effectively controlling the Covid-19 outbreak. Palang Pracharath Party MP Pareena Kraikupt said these mistakes were caused by the government placing trust in “bad people”.

Thailand use to be a fun, hopeful place full of charm. Today it feels like an army base run be a nasal accented tinpot. Stagnation and no innovation is what you get with a military government what wants to control every little thing. 17 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would clearly qualify as treason, sedition, disloyalty, rebellion, insurgency, insurrection, mutiny, subversion, blasphemy, heresy, apostasy…and...at least another two or three hundred offenses. Thank goodness the patriotic, ever-vigilant and correct-thinking police were able to swiftly arrest these desperate and dangerous criminals....and protect the community from their foul thought crime. 4 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because as we all know it's against the law to be involved in a political party. But even then it doesn't justify arrest without charge and physical assault. P.s even your Hero is part of a political party oh my mistake I forget he's above Politics and doesn't even have one vote to his name. Woooops my mistake again of course he's got the vote of the whole Senate including his brother lol.
