Reported over 1 year ago

Former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra was formally charged with lese majeste today, facing a maximum of 15 years in prison for allegedly insulting the monarchy. Additionally, the Thai Constitution Court ruled on the trial dates for the current Prime Minister Srettha's incompetence case and the dissolution case of the opposition 'Move Forward Party,' with analysts suggesting these major cases could further destabilize Thai politics. Thaksin Shinawatra, who denies the charges, was granted bail while his trial proceeds.
