Another day, another case of lese majeste in Thailand. Activist Tanruthai Thanrut was charged for a speech she made at a protest on 14 July.

"Thai Lawyers for Human Rights (TLHR) said that the complaint against Tanruthai was filed because she gave a speech saying that no institution is above the people and demanding that the Senate and House of Representatives respect the result of the election."
