Two Thai protesters could face life imprisonment for violence against the Queen

Two Thai protesters could face life imprisonment for violence against the Queen

[ad_1]

The arrests come after Queen Suthida’s motorcade drove past protesters in Bangkok on Wednesday, with video showing the crowd shouting and holding up the defiant three-finger salute inspired by the Hunger Games movie franchise. Police were seen pushing back protesters as the car, which also carried King Maha Vajiralongkorn’s youngest son, Prince Dipangkorn, slowly drove past.

Thailand bans mass gatherings under emergency decree

Thailand's government has imposed a state of emergency in a bid to end three months of student-led street protests calling for reforms to the monarchy and the resignation of Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha, arresting at least 20 activists and two of the movement's leaders early on Thursday.

The ruling bans gatherings of five or more people and the publication of news or online messages that could harm national security.

Despite the imposed restrictions, hundreds defied the new measures.

Protests have escalated over the past three months and on Wednesday tens of thousands of people marched in Bangkok, the capital, setting up camp outside Government House, the prime minister's office. The government said it also acted after demonstrators obstructed a royal motorcade.

Videos shared widely on social media showed police protecting the royals' yellow car as it moved through crowds of people holding their arms aloft in the three-finger salute that has become the symbol of the democracy movement and shouting their demands.

“It is extremely necessary to introduce an urgent measure to end this situation effectively and promptly to maintain peace and order,” state television said.

The announcement was accompanied by a document setting out measures that took effect from 4am local time (21:00 GMT) banning large gatherings and allowing authorities to ban people from entering any area they designate.

It also prohibits: “publication of news, other media, and electronic information that contains messages that could create fear or intentionally distort information, creating misunderstanding that will affect national security or peace and order.”

Shortly afterwards, police cleared the remaining protesters from outside Government House. Police said they had arrested protest leaders Parit “Penguin” Chirawat and rights lawyer Arnon Nampa. Thai Lawyers for Human Rights said its earlier statement that Panupong Jadnok had also been arrested was incorrect.

A third leader, Panusaya “Rung” Sithijirawattanakul, was picked up later on Thursday with pictures on social media showing her being taken away in a wheelchair as she gave the three-fingered salute. Rung had said a protest would take place at 4pm (09:00 GMT) despite the emergency decree. Police made no immediate comment.

The Asia Desk of FIDH, an international human rights group, said at least 20 pro-democracy activists had been arrested. Under the state of emergency, police can detain people without charge for as long as 30 days.

“The scale of today's arrests seems completely unjustified based in yesterday's events,” Amnesty International's Deputy Regional Director for Campaigns, Ming Yu Hah said in a statement, urging the authorities to release the detainees. “The assemblies were completely peaceful. These moves are clearly designed to stamp out dissent, and sow fear in anyone who sympathises with the protesters' views. ”

Royal taboo

The protest movement aims to remove Prayuth, the former army chief who took power in a 2014 coup that was meant to end a decade of violence between supporters and opponents of the country's establishment, and who solidified his position in elections that were held last year.

They also want a new constitution and have called for a reduction in the powers of King Maha Vajiralongkorn - breaking a long-standing taboo on criticizing the monarchy.

Such overt challenges to the monarchy are unprecedented in Thailand, where the royal family's influence permeates every aspect of society, and have prompted a backlash from Thailand's staunchly pro-royalist establishment.

“We have begun to see it talked about more than ever before,” said Al Jazeera's Scott Heidler, reporting from outside Government House. "But it's one thing to see people on the streets demanding that reform and quite another to see it actually happen."

Tensions rose on Wednesday around the royal motorcade as people wearing yellow shirts - symbolizing their support for the monarchy - also began to gather. Some 15,000 police were deployed.

“The monarchy has been around more than 700 years,” said Sirilak Kasemsawat, one of thousands of royal supporters waiting “to show we love the king”.

Government spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri announced late on Wednesday that the prime minister had ordered police to press charges against “the protesters who obstructed the royal motorcade.”

Charges will also be pursued against “those who had acted in a way that defames the monarchy”, he said in a statement.

Several popular anti-government movements have arisen during the turbulent modern history of Thailand, which has endured long bouts of political unrest and more than a dozen successful military coups since 1932.

The army has long positioned itself as the sole defender of the ultra-wealthy king, who spends most of his time in Germany but whose power stretches across every facet of Thai society.

Activists have repeatedly said they wish only for the monarchy to adapt to modern times.

Their demands include the abolition of a strict royal defamation law - which shields the king from criticism - and for the monarch to stay out of politics.

“We're just asking them to change with us,” protester Dear Thatcha told AFP news agency.

Since the movement started in July, dozens of anti-government activists have been arrested, charged with sedition and released on bail. At least 21 people were arrested earlier this week for attending demonstrations.

Insane life of king with £24billion fortune

Many #Thais are struggling to find things to keep us occupied while we're in coronavirus lockdown - not so the King.

It has been reported King Maha Vajiralongkorn -  also known as Rama X - has self-isolated in a hotel in Germany with 20 of his girlfriends. The 67-year-old is said to have moved his entire harem of concubines into the high end Grand Hotel Sonnenbichl in Bavaria after he was given permission by authorities. Bavaria is under lockdown, like the rest of Germany, and the hotel should be closed down along with all the others but it was apparently been given "special permission" to remain open for the king and his bizarre court. It is not known if the king's FOUR wives are among the group.

The king has been married four times (Image: RUNGROJ YONGRIT/EPA-EFE/REX) King Vajiralongkorn has long been a controversial figure in Thailand, where it is banned from criticising the royal family, or even their pets. Despite the threat of 35 years in prison, he is criticised in his home country, albeit in private. As the oldest monarch to ascend to Thailand's throne, King Vajiralongkorn, has been married four times and has a colourful private life. Said to be worth £24billion the royal has hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons, from his marriages, to his mistresses and even a leaked video of the queen naked apart from a G-string. Back in November 2009 a home video of the royal and his third wife, Srirasmi Suwadee, was leaked.

He is said to be lockdown with 20 of his concubines (Image: REUTERS) The queen was wearing nothing but a G-string while servants waited on her hand of foot at the celebration of his pet poodle's birthday. That same year Harry Nicolaides, am Australian, was jailed for three years after he published a book which contained the sentence "if the prince fell in love with one of his minor wives and she betrayed him, she and her family would disappear with their name, familial lineage and all vestiges of their existence expunged forever". Nicolaides was later pardoned by the king and he said his book had been "entirely fiction from cover to cover". Two years later, one of Vajiralongkorn's royal planes was seized by German authorities as payment for a £27million debt owed to a German firm, which was in danger of becoming bankrupt. Vajiralongkorn finally agreed to pay £18million, which was then covered by the Thai government. He married his first wife, Princess Soamsawali Kitiyakara, in 1977 and the couple welcomed their daughter, Princess Najrakitiyabha. However, during his first marriage, Vajiralongkorn embarked on an affair with actress Yuvadhida Polpraserth, with whom he had five children. Despite repeated requests, Princess Soamsawali refused to divorce her husband until he finally got his wish in 1993, claiming the fault of the marriage's failure lay squarely at his wife's door. Even so, his first wife and their daughter continue to play a major part in royal events. Vajiralongkorn, still a prince, then married the woman he had been having an affair with for more than 15 years - but their wedding was not blessed by the queen.

The hotel where the king is staying in Bavaria Just two years after their marriage Yuvadhida moved to Britain with all of the couple's children - the prince did not react well. He put posters up all around the palace, accusing his wife of adultery and eventually abducted his daughter and brought her back to Thailand to live with him. She was later elevated to the rank of princess, but his wife and their sons were stripped of their royal titles and they all now live in the US. His third wife was Srirasmi Suwadee, who had worked for the prince since 1992. The marriage was kept from the public for four years, finally been disclosed in 2005. Srirasmi gave birth to the couple's son, Prince Dipangkorn Rasmijoti, in the same year and was made a princess by her husband, who vowed his wild days were behind him.

The king with the queen at his coronation But nine years later Vajiralongkorn demanded his wife's family be stripped of their royal titles amid allegations of corruption among her relatives. His wife relinquished her royal titles soon afterwards and agreed to a divorce after 13 years of marriage after being awarded a £4.4million settlement. Just three days before he was crowned king, Vajiralongkorn married his fourth wife, Suthida Tidjai, who was a former acting commander of Royal Thai Aide-de-Camp Department. However, despite once again being a married man Vajiralongkorn was still not faithful and just months after his wedding he gave his concubine Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi the title of Chao Khun Phra, which means royal noble consort. The 34-year-old had become the first royal consort in Thailand for almost a century in almost 25 years and meant she was an official companion to the king but not the queen.er of her new position, fortune, title and rank, claiming she had been disrespectful to the queen and disloyal to him. An official statement said: "The royal consort's behaviours were considered disrespectful," showing "disobedience against the king and the queen" and abusing her power to give orders on the king's behalf. The king, the statement said, had learned "she neither was grateful to the title bestowed upon her, nor did she behave appropriately according to her status". Who knows what the future will bring for the 20 women currently in self-isolation with the king of Thailand. - The Mirror – Stay up to date with BangkokJack on Twitter, Instagram, & Reddit.
