British Man Arrested in Bangkok Over Defamation Claims by Phuket Restaurant

If the perpetrator and his associates posted multiple bad reviews without cause this is a clear case of defamation that was intent on causing harm to the business.

 

If the allegations against him are proven, the guy should be prosecuted for defamation and then sued for damages.

They was a similar story a few yrs back maybe pattaya a online review and the owner did not like it.Don,t know what happened after but the tourist was in trouble.If u do make a review do it in your home country,but even then if u return they may have your number.

You are hoisted by your own petard. Your statement about the defamation laws in Australia is correct. But in Thailand you can be sued for defamation EVEN IF, your statement is true. 

 

Perhaps it is the case in other countries, but I personally don’t know any.

For the record it’s “ being hoisted ‘on’ your own petard” I only said that you could be sued in Australia and other countries if the statement isn’t true .

I never said that in Thailand you could only be sued if the statement was untrue.

As a retired lawyer from Australia I am well aware of the law relating to defamation in Thailand and Australia where in relation to the latter,  I took action against several individuals who foolishly posted defamatory comments on the internet.
