In 2020, 25 -year -old Jatong was dressed as Queen Sutida, Thailand in the protests on the streets of Bangkok. "She" was wearing a traditional pink silk dress, and there was a special person around her "her" umbrella. It is reported that Jaton is a transsexual person. The behavior of "her" was considered by the court to deliberately mocked the monarchy and convicted. In Thailand, slander or insults the king, queen, heir or regent king is a criminal act, and can be sentenced to 15 years in prison.

"Jatopon has always denied the allegations of the royal family, and she thought she was wearing the traditional Thai costumes." Jaton would appeal to the court's decision. Essence

According to a Thai Lawyer Association, at least 210 activists have been accused of insulting the royal family in the past two years, and Jaton is just one of them. These people have called on the reform of the monarchy to participate in related protests.

On September 12, local time, the Thai royal family refused to comment on this. However, in November 2020, the current king of Thailand, Maha Kaiziralon, said in an interview: "We all love them (protesters)."

For decades, Thailand has been respecting the king. On December 1, 2016, Kajiralonki completed the throne after his father's death, officially becoming the new king of Thailand.
