Thai civil court accepts lawsuit demanding revocation of Emergency Decree, compensation

[snoop1130]

 

The Thai Civil Court accepted a lawsuit today (Tuesday), against Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and five others, filed jointly by the anti-establishment Ratsadon group, the Internet Law Reform Dialogue (iLaw), a non-profit legal organization, and a feminist group, demanding the lifting of restrictions on free expressions and 4.5 million baht in compensation.

 

iLaw is represented by Yingcheep Atchanont, while the Ratsadon and the Feminist Liberation groups are represented by Attapon Buapat and Chumaporn Tangkliang respectively.

 

In the lawsuit, the plaintiffs claim that they were charged by the police for addressing a protest held by “United Front of Thammasat and Demonstration” on March 24th, in violation of restrictions stipulated in the Emergency Decree, and argue that these restrictions impinge upon their constitutional right to freedom of expression.

Exactly my thoughts, they are standing up to themselves and are trying to make this country a better place. I won't implicate myself any further, but good for them!

But he's already granted himself immunity against ANY prosecution so this suit will only serve to make the lawyers richer; these latter feed off the archaic Thai laws that stifle free speech.

these brave big hearted people are facing state action “disappearance”….. like the  vanished dissidents hiding out in Cambodia and Singapore…….although perhaps they are gambling the high publicity levels will protect them…….
