A political group, "June 24 Democracy," protested outside the Constitutional Court against its consideration of two cases involving Pita Limjaroenrat: his alleged shareholding violation and his party's lèse majesté law amendment campaign.
Group leader Somyot Prueksakasemsuk questioned the Election Commission's neutrality and speed in submitting the shareholding case, further arguing that accepting the lèse majesté case infringes upon public freedom of expression.
