years ago

06 October 1976,

In Thailand there was a massacre at Thammasat University. Students and workers protested since mid-September for the return of dictator Thanom Kittikachorn to the country.

He occupied Thammasat University and became the epicenter of the manifestations of left movements.

Today, the army and ultra-right-wing paramilitaries went into the vacuum of university and acted mercilessly.

Hundreds of students were shot, hanged or burned.
