I was mugged by 2 Thai shopping mall security guards. a few years back ( no i wasn't drunk or causing a problem) They hit me over the head with a wooden staff, stole my wallet and my phone. Police did EVERYTHING they could to find a reason not to investigate, even refusing me hospital treatment until I had signed a statement in Thai. I refused. No phone call, no treatment. Luckily my wife's brother is a police officer. They found out where i was. When they arrived I was still at the desk with the unsigned statement in front of me . My wife read it before the officer could take it away. It was totally false in saying I fell over, drunk and the guards helped me and i had lost my wallet and phone when I fell. Thai police are no saints!
