Bangkok's Court acquitted former Thai Prime Minister Taksi from the accusations of slandering the Royal Familiar with the Royal Family, which could be imprisoned, Deutsche Welle reports. If the 76-year-old prime minister was facing up to 15 years in prison, the judges knew him innocent, noting that the evidence was not enough to condemn him.
He was accused of violating the Lese Majeste law of Thailand, which criticizes the criticism of King Mahah Vajiralongkori and his family.
