Crime Gang of Teenagers Attack Motorbike Repair Shop Owner in Pattaya
Picture courtesy of Kaoded. A violent altercation broke out in Pattaya after a group of youths stormed a motorcycle repair shop and assaulted its owner, reportedly in retaliation for a storage fee dispute and a refusal to service a motorbike. At around 13:00 on 13 May, Pol. Lt. Col. Pakorn Muensikeaw of Bang Lamung Police Station received a report of an assault involving a group of teenagers at a motorbike garage in Soi Khao Noi, near the railway tracks, Nong Prue Subdistrict. Police patrol units were immediately dispatched to the scene. There they found Mr. Woramet Nilket, 27, the owner of the garage, with head injuries and visible bruises. The shop itself showed clear signs of a struggle, tools and equipment were scattered and damaged. According to Mr. Woramet, the incident stemmed from an argument the previous night (12 May). Two teenagers had pushed a broken motorbike to his shop around 22:40, but as the garage had already closed, he advised them to leave the bike overnight so he could inspect it the next day. The owner of the bike later phoned in the morning to ask about the repair, but was told the shop hadn’t yet reopened. The bike was then taken elsewhere. Mr. Woramet said he charged the bike owner a 100-baht storage fee, which led to a heated argument. The young man allegedly threatened him, saying, “You’ll see what happens next.” Later a group of around ten teenagers, including the bike owner, returned to the shop and violently assaulted him. Fortunately, the entire incident was captured on the shop’s CCTV system. Footage shows a youth in a white shirt pushing the bike to the shop on the night of 12 May, speaking briefly with the owner’s partner, before being picked up by another motorcycle. The following afternoon, the same individual returned with a group to carry out the attack. Initial police investigations confirmed the involvement of approximately ten male and female suspects. Officers are using the CCTV footage as key evidence in the case and have encouraged the victim to file an official complaint to pursue legal action. The suspects remain at large as police continue their investigation. Adapted by Asean Now from Kaoded 2025-05-14. -

Anti-vaxers relying on discredited doctor's claims about COVID vaccines... again!
He is one of the top virologists in the world, ex-CDC Director with a demonstrated track record of evidence-based research, of course he has data to back it up. He 100% matches the profile you have been citing for years to justify your stance on the Covid vaccine, and it is remarkable (though not in the least surprising) to see you refuse to look into what he says simply because it isn't what you want to hear. The good news, at least, is that you can now refrain from stating that only virologists are qualified to talk about this issue, and other inanities such as this: -

Crime Cyber Police Disguise as Monk to Arrest Online Gun Dealer in Maha Sarakham
Picture courtesy of Amarin. In an unusual undercover operation, cyber police officers disguised themselves as Buddhist monks to arrest the operator of a Facebook page selling illegal firearms online. The sting operation was part of an ongoing crackdown on the illegal arms trade across the country. The arrest was announced at a press conference, on 13 May, on the ground floor of the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau’s Division 2 (CCIB), led by Police General Thatchai Pitaneelabutr, Director of the Police Cyber Taskforce, and Police Lieutenant General Trirong Phiewphan, Commander of the CCIB, alongside senior officials. The operation stemmed from orders issued by Lt. Gen. Trirong, directing officers to intensify efforts to combat the online sale of firearms. Officers from Sub-Division 2, Division 3, CCIB, subsequently discovered that a Facebook user named “Do Thanased” was posting in public groups offering guns for sale. Police Colonel Arunphan Vanichchanan, head of Sub-Division 2, authorised a covert plan, with Police Lieutenant Colonel Anothai Deeying and a task force coordinating with Region 4 investigators to carry out the operation. An officer posed as a recently ordained monk participating in a traditional summer ordination programme and contacted the suspect to purchase a firearm for 22,000 baht. A meeting was arranged at a petrol station in Kosum Phisai district, Maha Sarakham province. As planned, the suspect, identified as Mr. Jaruwat, arrived in a black pickup truck and contacted the undercover officer, instructing him to approach the vehicle. Upon confirming the presence of a genuine firearm, the monk gave a signal to officers lying in wait, who moved in to arrest the suspect. A subsequent search uncovered three handguns: a black 11mm Colt semi-automatic pistol, a black 9mm Norinco semi-automatic pistol, and a white .22 calibre Astra Cadix revolver. Police also seized 20 rounds of 11mm ammunition and 50 rounds of 9mm ammunition. Mr. Jaruwat was charged with multiple offences under the 1947 Firearms, Ammunition, Explosives, Fireworks and Imitation Firearms Act, including illegal possession of firearms and ammunition, and carrying weapons in public without permission. The suspect confessed to all charges and is currently in custody awaiting further legal proceedings. Authorities affirmed their commitment to dismantling online weapons networks and bringing all those involved to justice. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-05-14.
