FreeSpeechProtest
25 JANUARY 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Free speech activists in Bangkok burn legal documents related to the Lese Majeste trial of magazine editor Somyot Prueksakasemsuk and freedom of speech in Thailand. About 70 people protested on behalf of freedom of speech and expression at the Criminal Court building in Bangkok Friday. The protest was called as a result of the 10 year sentence handed down against Somyot on Lese Majeste charges earlier in the week. The protesters burned several legal documents to demonstrate they said was their loss of free speech during the protest. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
