⚖️The misuse of criminal law against the press is a direct attack on democracy and the rule of law. States must guarantee safe conditions for a free and independent press, and protect society's fundamental right to be informed.

📌 Some of the new government’s early actions, including the forced eviction, ordinance to dilute the independence of the constitutional council, appear to violate housing rights and due process protections, and show an alarming disregard for procedure and the rule of law.
"Victims and survivors of crimes that were committed during the conflict have waited far too long for justice, while the culture of impunity that took root in that period has contributed to ongoing violations including the killing of Gen-Z protesters" - @mandira36 Regional Director of @ICJ_Asia

🇹🇭 #Thailand | On 10 April, the @ICJ_Asia submitted two joint reports to the UN Human Rights Council’s Working Group on the Universal Periodic Review (#UPR), ahead of Thailand’s review in November 2026.
Together with partners, the submissions highlight key human rights concerns and aim to support the development of strong, targeted recommendations.
🔹 The first submission focuses on the protection of human rights defenders (#HRDs), raising concerns over violence, enforced disappearances, transnational repression, harassment, and the use of #SLAPPs.
🔹 The second submission addresses gaps in Thailand’s compliance with international human rights law, particularly on gender-based discrimination and gender-based violence (#GBV), including legal shortcomings and barriers to justice for survivors.
