Thaksin Shinawatra bowls seized by Thai police

 

Thai police have seized thousands of small bowls carrying a message signed by ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

They also arrested the female politician from his party in whose house they were found.

 

She has now been charged with sedition, which can carry seven years in prison.

I wonder if this case will be used as an example in a court hearing.. if it ever gets that far?

Precedent has little meaning in the Thai "judicial" system.

 

Convicted 2013/2014 protesters get released on bail. 2020/21 protesters detained without bail. 

 

Can you spot the difference?
