snoop1130 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Prawit: military student’s death ‘not from beating’ By Jitraporn Senwong The Nation Defence Minister General Prawit Wongsuwon Defence Minister General Prawit Wongsuwon on Wednesday insisted that the recent death of a military student was related to his own health problems, not any brutal beating. “He was ill. No one beat him up,” said Prawit, who is also the deputy prime minister overseeing security affairs. He said he believed the Armed Forces Academy Preparatory School (AFAPS) explanation in the case of Phakhapong “Moei” Tanyakan. Phakhapong, a first-year student at the AFAPS, died on October 17 under what his family believes is suspicious circumstances. According to the family, he almost died two months earlier due to punishment he received at the school. The official autopsy by the military-owned Phramongkutklao Hospital shows Phakhapong died of acute heart failure. Asked about the punishment related to discipline issue, Prawit said all AFAPS students had to deal with that. “When I was a student there, I also received punishment and lost consciousness because of that. Anyway, I’ve survived,” he said. Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/detail/breakingnews/30332266 -- © Copyright The Nation 2017-11-22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stunning to think that someone with such a piss poor attitude, who is running the country, thinks that beating the crap out of cadets is alright. One wonders what it will take and when, Thailand will emerge from the dark ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinneil Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) So Prawit says the young man did not die from a beating. How does he know? Was he there? Man could not tell the truth if his life depended on it. Edited November 22, 2017 by colinneil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen tracy Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 So I guess the multiple bruises, the fractured ribs and collar bones were all self-inflicted. Regretful that Prawit survived his beating, if he ever really got one, which I doubt. He wouldn't survive a slap in the face from a old woman.

pattayadon Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I also received punishment and lost consciousness because of that. Anyway, I’ve survived,” he said. So what about the heart failure? I suppose after a massive beating his heart failed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oziex1 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Tragic story, but was it necessary to head the story with a picture of the poor man's ruptured liver. That's what the picture is isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweatalot Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 heart failure as the alleged cause of death is nonsense - there must be a reason for the heart failure. This would be the cause of death. (Except in the case of coronary heart disease - but this is very unlikely in a young man. It would be obvious in the autopsy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what about the heart failure? I suppose after a massive beating his heart failed! 'First, 'e said "Yeah, I done a lot of murders and that. And thieving. And raping. So what?" Then 'e somehow fell down the stairs as our hofficers was momentarily distracted. And that's God's truth, your Honnour.' Unfortunately that will probably serve as a plausible explanation here...

retarius Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Well, I guess this puts the issue to rest. Prawit is an unimpeachable source and must be believed. The parents need to go for some re-education. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
