sabaijai Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Sulak arrested on lese majeste charge By The Nation Police have acted suspiciously for the arrest of social critic Sulak Sivalak charged for insulting the monarchy, his lawyer Somchai Homla-or said on Friday. Sulak was apprehended at his Bangkok home by Khon Kaen police on Thursday's night, taken for booking at the Northeastern province before being released on bail pending the completion of police report. Somchai said Sulak made his remarks at Khon Kaen University last December which raised the question why police decided to take action at this juncture. Sulak's remarks, if viewed within the context, were meant to defend the monarchy and his client had no intent to smear, he said. He cast doubt on the police action which he said was a political game designed to silent his client who just commented on the amnesty campaign for former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.
