Three Thai activists facing charges of insulting the monarchy have disappeared after reportedly being arrested in Vietnam, months after two exiled critics of the military and monarchy died.

據報道，三名泰國活動人士在越南被捕後失蹤，他們此前面臨侮辱泰國君主政體的指控。就在幾個月前，兩名批評泰國軍方和君主制的流亡人士被發現死亡。

The three dissidents had fled lese-majesty charges and continued to broadcast anti-monarchist and anti-junta commentary from exile. Chucheep Chiwasut – known as Uncle Sanam Luang – Siam Theerawut and Kritsana Thapthai were reportedly stopped after crossing over the border from Laos into Vietnam a month ago, reportedly using fake passports.

這三名持不同政見者在受到「褻瀆君主罪」的指控後紛紛逃離，並且在流亡期間繼續傳播反君主制和反軍政府的言論。據報道，邱吉普、被稱為薩納姆叔叔的塞姆和克瑞薩納。在一個月前從寮國越境進入越南後被攔截抓捕，據悉他們使用的是假護照。

According to Human Rights Watch, Vietnam handed the dissidents over to Thai authorities on 8 May, but they have not been seen since, and there has been no acknowledgement of their arrest and detention. Thailand』s deputy prime minister, Prawit Wongsuwan, denied the activists were in Thai custody.

據人權觀察稱，越南於5月8日將持不同政見者移交給泰國當局，但自那以後就再沒有人見到他們，也沒有人承認對他們的逮捕和拘留。泰國副總理巴威否認這些活動人士被泰國拘留。

Brad Adams, the executive director of Human Rights Watch Asia, said: 「Vietnam』s alleged secret forced return to Thailand of three prominent activists should set off alarm bells in the international community.」

人權觀察亞洲部門執行主任布拉德?亞當斯表示：「越南涉嫌秘密強迫3名知名活動人士返回泰國，這應當在國際社會敲響警鐘。」

Article 112 of Thailand』s criminal code says anyone who insults the king, queen, heir or regent faces punishment of up to 15 years in prison.

泰國刑法第112條規定，任何侮辱國王、王后、繼承人或攝政王的人將面臨最高15年的監禁。

Following a military coup in the country in 2014, many activists who were part of the pro-democracy 「red shirt」 movement and had voiced anti-monarchist sentiment were forced to flee to Laos, where dozens have been hiding out since.

2014年該國發生軍事政變後，許多曾參與支持民主的「紅衫軍」運動、並表達過反君主制情緒的活動人士被迫逃往寮國。自那以來，數十名活動人士一直躲藏在寮國。

Since 2016, a number of activists have either been found dead or mysteriously disappeared, raising questions about their safety in Laos and the role of Thailand』s military government in the disappearances. The junta has consistently denied any culpability.

自2016年以來，一些活動人士要麼被發現死亡，要麼神秘失蹤，這讓人對他們在寮國的安全以及泰國軍政府在這些失蹤事件中扮演的角色產生了質疑。軍政府一直否認有任何罪責。

In June 2016, Ittipon Sukpaen, known as DJ Sunho, disappeared without trace. He had been charged with violation of lese-majesty laws in Thailand and was hiding in the outskirts of the Laos capital, Vientiane, where he continued to broadcast anti-monarchy YouTube videos.

2016年6月，被稱為DJ桑鎬的Ittipon Sukpaen消失得無影無蹤。他被控在泰國違反了冒犯君主的法律，當時他躲在寮國首都萬象的郊區，繼續在YouTube上發布反君主制的視頻。

In 2017, the wife of an exiled host of an anti-monarchist radio show witnessed his abduction from their house in Vientiane. Wuthipong Kachathamakul, known as Ko Tee, has not been seen since.

2017年，一名反君主制電台節目流亡主持人的妻子目睹了他在萬象的家裡被人綁架走。烏提蓬?卡哈塔瑪庫爾，也就是人們所知的柯蒂，自那以後就再也沒有人見過他。

Then in December last year, one of Thailand』s best-known dissidents, Surachai Danwattananusorn, and two other exiles with whom he was living in Laos, Chatcharn Buppawan and Kraidej Luelert, disappeared from their home.

去年12月，泰國最著名的異見人士之一素拉猜?丹瓦塔納努松和另外兩名流亡寮國的人查查恩?布帕萬和克萊德吉?魯樂特從家中失蹤。

Two weeks later, the bodies of Chatcharn and Kraidej washed up on the banks of the Mekong River on the Thai side. They had been disembowelled and stuffed with concrete, their legs broken and their hands handcuffed, as well as tied with rope at the neck, waist and knees. Surachai』s body has not been found.

兩周後，查查恩和克萊德吉的屍體被衝到泰國一側的湄公河岸邊。他們被開膛破肚，屍體里被灌滿了水泥，他們的腿被打斷，雙手也被銬住，而脖子、腰和膝蓋都被繩子綁著。另一位人士素拉猜至今下落不明。

It is believed Chucheep was attempting to cross into Vietnam because he and the other exiles feared for their safety in Laos.

據信，邱吉普試圖越境進入越南，因為他和其他流亡者擔心他們在寮國不安全。

The US-based Thai Alliance for Human Rights was the first to report that Chucheep and his fellow exiles had been turned over to Thailand. 「We are worried about the situation,」 said Piangdin Rakthai, a spokesman for the campaign group. 「There have been disappearances and deaths of political activists who are against the military government and criticise the monarchy.」

總部設在美國的泰國人權聯盟是率先報告稱，邱吉普和他的流亡夥伴已經被移交給泰國。「我們很擔心這種情況」，該組織發言人潘丁拉卡泰表示：「一些反對軍政府、批評君主制的政治活動人士不是失蹤就是已經死亡。」

Separately on Friday, a former law student was released from jail a month before the end of his two-and-a-half-year sentence for a 2017 lese-majesty conviction.

另外，上周五，一名前法律系學生因2017年被判犯有「褻瀆王室罪」，在兩年半刑期結束前一個月獲釋。
