Captain Songklod’s attackers deny political motivation

By The Nation

 

 

The attackers of Captain Songklod Chuenchuphol aka Captain Poo Khem (salted crab), a core member of the nationalist group Thai Wisdom Guard, insisted the assault was not politically motivated.

 

Songklod had been attacked by a gang of five at around 1.30pm on Wednesday (September 16) when he stopped for lunch in Chachoengsao. He was driving to Nakhon Ratchasima.

 

Police arrested the attackers on Thursday and interrogated them to see if the attack was related to the video Songklod had posted earlier declaring war against local mafia.

 

The five assailants, however, said they attacked Songklod for overtaking their cars and interrupting their race. They said they tracked him down, beat him up and left him bleeding. However, they said, they began feeling guilty so surrendered to police.

 

Police said the case will be further investigated.

I was doing a search to find out what kind of captain he was, but I couldn't find anything. So, I guess he owns a dinghy...

Ha, found it: he is a former Army Captain. he must have dropped out before making General..., and now he guards the Thai wisdom.

Adulthood in Thailand leaves a lot to be understood.

Cheese and biscuits. A group of 5 racing their cars were overtaken by another vehicle. Was he driving a Ferrari?

 

The determination of these 5 'racers' to track him down and beat him up really, in my opinion reflects the attitude and selfishness of a lot of the people here. Me first and if you don't like it, I'll beat you up or knife you or shoot you.
