FREEDOM THAILAND 2012-2013 #4 : Status of defendants in cases related to freedom of expression

Status of defendants in cases related to freedom of expression during 2012-2013

One protracted problem is the Court’s refusal to grant bail to defendants in cases related to the expression of political opinions.

At present, at least 8 defendants in cases related to freedom of expression are being held in custody at the Bangkok Remand Prison. Two of them have their final verdicts, five decided to give up and are seeking a royal pardon and one is already dead while being held in custody.

Five defendants/convicts have been released; one as he did his full term, three given royal pardons and another person won his case in the Lower Court.

(Information were collected from January 2012 to April 2013)
