Man sentenced 37 years for insulting King's pet

A man, Dhanakorne, has been sentenced for 37 years in Thailand for certain remarks on King Bhumibol's pet dog. He used the social media for making light of the King's pet puppy. Dhanakorne faced charges, including treason and insult to the King. But the Military Court has not revealed the exact remarks that the man had made. He was arrested last week. Thailand is a very liberal monarchy, where the royalty is held in high esteeem, as that of England. In Thailand, the King is the Father of his subjects.
