Police in Bangkok have said that the attack on a 50 year old man in the toilets of a Bangkapi store highlights the need for security checks.

 

Theerapong Wongratphithak of the Region 4 metropolitan police agreed that people should be searched for weapons before entering public places like department stores. 

 

Plain clothes officers mingling among the public were also important in the fight against crime, he said. 

 

Natthakarn Feuangkhajorn, 50 was attacked in the store toilets with a double part club.

 

The attacker - 22 year old student Chuchart or "Tonwan" - is in custody. 

 

The Lat Prao police chief said that the Rachada court had ordered him held in custody.

Ridiculous, so they walk in with nothing  go to the cutlery section pick up a knife and then stab someone.

Anything's a  weapon if you want it to be although using Mr Wongratphitaks brain  to beat someone to death might  be classed as not.

I remember the day (some time ago in the 80's) where the mere mention of installing a cctv anywhere was met with resistance claiming it was Orwellian.

 

Having gotten older, my position has somewhat changed (have cctv's around my house) but the way we are going as a society really makes me realize that we are sacrificing security for safety.

 

Prolly will come and bite us in the arse some day.
