Amnesty International Thailand expresses on Tuesday its deepest condolences following the tragic death of Netiporn 'Bung' Sanesangkhom, an online English Teacher and pro-democracy activist, who passed away in detention at a correctional hospital after a prolonged hunger strike.
"Her death is a shocking reminder that Thai authorities are denying activists their right to temporary release on bail and using detention to silence the peaceful expression of dissent.
This is a grim day for Thai society, highlighting the severe judicial harassment and the justice system's failure to recognize basic human rights. Speaking out should not lead to death; it should inspire change.
.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to Bung's family and friends. This tragic incident should serve as a wake-up call to Thai authorities to release all human rights defenders and activists who are unjustly detained and to respect their right to bail. We call on the authorities to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation into Netiporn’s death and to ensure that such a tragedy never happens again.
.
Amnesty International Thailand demands immediate action to protect the rights, grants rights to bail and to uphold justice and human rights in the country."
