BANGKOK: A court in Thailand sentenced a “Red Shirt” political activist to 15 years in prison on Thursday for insulting the monarchy, the latest in a series of convictions under the kingdom’s lese majeste laws.

Daranee Charnchoengsilapakul, a hardcore supporter of Thailand’s ousted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, was accused of defaming the royals during speeches at political rallies in 2008.
