BANGKOK (Reuters): Thailand's palace has released photographs of King Maha Vajiralongkorn visiting prisons with his royal consort, Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi, as the royal family steps up public appearances following mass protests demanding reforms to the monarchy.
In a segment on the nightly royal bulletin on state and private TV channels on Saturday (Jan 9), the king and his consort -- restored to her position last year after having been disgraced and stripped of her titles -- are shown inspecting projects in jails across Thailand.
