Bhutan is facing its first free speech test after its transition to democracy, reports the Guardian. Independent journalist Namgay Zam, earlier a presenter on the state-run broadcaster Bhutan Broadcasting Service, is facing imprisonment or a massive fine if found guilty of defaming a prominent businessman. She shared a Facebook post by a woman about a property dispute between her family and a local businessman, Sonam Phuntsho. The post included allegations of forgery and nepotism within the judiciary.
