Thai critic gets 34 years
A Bangkok court sentenced Thai human rights lawyer Arnon Nampa to two years and eight months in prison for criticizing the monarchy at a Harry Potter-themed protest in 2020. The sentence is one of 14 cases against him under Thailand’s lèse-majesté law, bringing his total prison term to more than 34 years, with two verdicts still pending. The law has been used against 294 people since student protests called for public discussion of the monarchy’s role.
