Military courts of Thailand

The military courts of Thailand (Thai: ศาลทหาร; RTGSsan thahan) are judicial bodies with criminal jurisdiction over members of the Royal Thai Armed Forces and sometimes also over civilians as may be assigned by law,[1] as was the case from 25 May 2014 until 12 September 2016 following the 2014 Thai coup d'état.[2][3][4]

Unlike other courts in the judicial system of Thailand, military courts are subject to the Ministry of Defence and are operated by the military's Judge Advocate General's Department.[1]
