Crime Son of Prominent MP Sparks Violence at Songkhla Polling Station
UPDATE Crime Suppression Police Raid Seven Sites in Songkhla, Arrest Two More in Police Assault Case Picture courtesy of Khaosod. The Crime Suppression Division (CSD) launched coordinated raids on seven locations in Songkhla province on 20 May, arresting two additional suspects linked to a violent mob attack on a border patrol officer earlier this month. The incident, allegedly orchestrated by local political figure Siradon Phlaiduang, known as “Sor. Golf”, continues to draw national attention. Under orders from Pol. Col. Anake Taosuphab, deputy commander of the CSD, and Pol. Col. Anusorn Thongsai, acting commander of Subdivision 6, officers searched properties across Mueang district. The operation aimed to dismantle the network of influence associated with Sor. Golf, a notorious figure accused of ordering his subordinates to assault a police officer on duty. The initial attack occurred as Pol. Sgt. Nisatit Kongthep, a border patrol officer, was providing security at a local election polling station in Phawong subdistrict. He was brutally assaulted by a group allegedly acting under Sor. Golf’s direction. The two newly arrested suspects, Mr. Faisol 27 and Mr. Ananop 37, were apprehended on court warrants issued on 19 May. Both face charges of premeditated assault on a law enforcement officer, armed resistance to authorities, and participating in a criminal gang. Officers also recovered clothing worn during the attack and mobile phones. Faisol was arrested near Phawong subdistrict, while Ananop was taken into custody outside his residence in Khao Rup Chang subdistrict, both within Mueang Songkhla. Pol. Col. Anake stated that investigations revealed the two men were present during the assault, acting as lookouts while other members of the group attacked the officer. Evidence includes witness testimonies and CCTV footage from the vicinity. Both suspects partially admitted to being present at the scene and travelling with the group but denied direct involvement in the physical attack. They have been transferred to Subdivision 6 investigators for further legal proceedings. Meanwhile, the CSD is coordinating the transfer of Sor. Golf and seven earlier-arrested associates from Songkhla Provincial Prison to the Bangkok Remand Prison. The transfer is expected to be completed within a week and is aimed at streamlining the ongoing legal process. The case continues to highlight issues of political influence and organised violence in southern Thailand, as authorities widen their investigation into the extent of Sor. Golf’s criminal operations.

How do you feel about Thailand being clearly far-right?
She's got general Tao juice running through her veins, and I've got poutine running through my Serbian sausage. -

The worst thing I see on Thai roads
This was happening before you arrived, it's a good system It works if the motorbike is paying attention. The motorbike sees the oncoming car and pulls over to the left. It's not just on busy roads, soi Buakhou, baht buses are always stopped, only way for traffic to flow is overtake, I'm always pulling over for oncoming vehicles. -
