Former Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra pleaded not guilty to criminal negligence charges that she says are being pushed by the forces behind the coup that toppled her elected government a year ago.

Yingluck was granted bail by the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Holders of Political Positions during a hearing Tuesday in Bangkok, and the court allowed her to submit written testimony by July 3.
