"Thai authorities are demanding that Facebook remove embarrassing footage of their king in a shopping centre, wearing a crop top and sporting fake tattoos, in a test of the country’s strict censorship laws.
The video of King Maha Vajiralongkorn, 64, strolling around a shopping centre with a woman was reportedly filmed in Munich in July 2016, and was widely shared on the social network.
Takorn Tantasith, secretary-general of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC), announced on Thursday that the authorities would sue.
The legal action would first be against Facebook Thailand and its partners, he said, according to The Bangkok Post.”*
