Thai Court Jails Two For Lese-Majeste
From the BBC: A Thai court has sentenced two student activists to more than two years in prison for participating in a play presented in 2013 that insulted the King of Thailand. The two could have received a sentence of 15 years, but said they pled guilty in order to receive a reduced sentence. Coverage of their arrest and trial has been limited because repetition of the statements is as illegal under Thai law as the statements themselves. More here from the Telegraph.
