Community Police Officer’s Suicide at Home – Leaves Farewell Letter Requesting Forgiveness
Picture courtesy of Naewna A high-ranking police officer in Roi Et province has died from suicide at his residence, leaving behind a handwritten letter requesting forgiveness and providing final instructions to loved ones. The incident occurred on the morning of 6 June 2025 at approximately 07:50, when Pol. Lt. Thanyawit Phanthura, Deputy Inspector of Phanom Phrai Police Station, received a report from the station’s radio centre regarding a self-inflicted gunshot incident at a private residence in Phanom Phrai district. Upon receiving the report, Pol. Lt. Thanyawit promptly informed his superiors. He was joined at the scene by senior officers, including Pol. Col. Ratchaphong Nampatsa (Superintendent of Phanom Phrai Police Station), Pol. Lt. Col. Nipon Wandee-si, Pol. Lt. Col. Mongkhon Phanadon (both investigators), as well as a team of uniformed and plain-clothed officers. They were accompanied by doctors from Phanom Phrai Hospital and volunteers from the Udomwate Rescue Unit. The scene was a two-storey private residence. Inside the living room on the ground floor, officers found the body of a Pol. Lt. Col. [Name withheld], who held the position of Deputy Superintendent (Investigation). He was dressed in a T-shirt and sports shorts, lying motionless with his body extended across the armrest of a sofa. His right hand was gripping a 9mm semi-automatic handgun, which still had a live round chambered. A wound was found on the right temple, with the bullet exiting through the left side of his head. A spent shell casing was located roughly two metres from the body. A bullet hole was observed on the left armrest of the sofa, with the projectile later found on the stairwell after ricocheting off the banister. Blood stains were visible on the floor behind the sofa, while a suicide note was discovered in front of the deceased. The letter, written in the officer’s own hand, outlined 11 specific points, one of which was a request for “Ahosikarma” – a plea for spiritual forgiveness. Police forensic investigators from Roi Et province, along with hospital staff, completed a thorough examination of the scene. Authorities are now compiling witness testimony and evidence in accordance with legal procedures. The motive behind the officer’s decision to end his life remains unclear, and police have yet to disclose the contents of the remaining items in the farewell letter. The investigation is ongoing. If you or anyone you know is in emotional distress, please contact the Samaritans of Thailand 24-hour hotline: 02 713 6791 (English), 02 713 6793 (Thai) or the Thai Mental Health Hotline at 1323 (Thai). Please also contact your friends or relatives at this time if you have feelings of loneliness, stress or depression. Seek out help. Adapted by Asean Now from Naewna 2025-06-08 -

Report Thai Roads: Quiet Amidst Chaos, The Culture of Low Horn Use
There is, or used to be, a law in Switzerland obliging you to slow down and honk when approaching children on the road. Can't see that one working in Thailand. I heard this story 40 years ago so it must date back to the 60's: In Iran somebody passed a law forbidding the constant use of horns. Some people actually had a switch that allowed the horn to sound incessantly. The law didn't work. They set up wayside reception committees and: stripped the guys to their underpants, shaved their heads and painted them red, and confiscated their car and their shoes. After a few days of seeing red headed guys limping down the road, honking ceased. three days the honking ceased. Ah, to be a dictator!
