"libel"

The Bangkok South Civil Court ordered a blogger to pay CP All a compensation of Bt80,000 at 7.5 per cent interest per year for breaching a contract settlement with the company in a libel case.

DESPITE confessing, former Department of Special Investigation (DSI) director-general Tarit Pengdit’s hopes for more lenient treatment were dashed when the Supreme Court sentenced him on Friday to a year in jail for libel.
