The original penalty was a maximum of seven years imprisonment, but was toughened to a minimum of three years and a maximum of 15 years. This harsher sentence has been retained to the current day, see Colum Murphy, "A Tug of War for Thailand's Soul", Far Eastern Economic Review, September 2006. As stipulated under the constitution, lèse majesté only applied to criticism of the king, queen, crown prince, and regent. Tanin, a former supreme court justice, reinterpreted this as a blanket ban against criticism of royal development projects, the royal institution, the Chakri Dynasty, or any Thai king. See David Streckfuss, "Kings in the Age of Nations: The Paradox of Lèse-Majesté as Political Crime in Thailand", Comparative Studies in Society and History 37 (3): 445-475.
