Kritsana Thapthai (Thai: กฤษณะ ทัพไทย) is a Thai anti-monarchy activist. In May 2019, Kritsana disappeared after being handed over to Thai authorities from Vietnam. She has been missing since.

Activism

Krtisana was under police investigation in Thailand for allegations of lèse-majesté. She fled Thailand to Laos after the 2014 Thai military coup.

Disappearance

In April 2019, Kritsana along with activists Chucheep Chiwasut, known as Uncle Sanam Luang, and Siam Theerawut, were reported to have crossed into Vietnam from Laos using fake passports.

On 8 May 2019, the trio were reportedly turned over to Thai authorities.
