webfact Posted August 21, 2022 Author Share Posted August 21, 2022 Salon owner surrendered to Pathum Thani police after allegedly stabbing couple to death over bad haircut quarrel By Nop Meechukhun Pathum Thani – A salon owner, 50, has turned himself in to Pak Khlong Rangsit District Police Station after reportedly stabbing an extra actress and her husband to death at a salon located in Tesco Lotus Department Store in Pathum Thani on Saturday, August 20th. Local police arrived at the department store after being alerted to the attack on Saturday. There, two bodies of the Thai couple were found – whose names were revealed as Nok,41, and Pop, 40. According to local witnesses, the couple came to get their hair done at the salon but the hairdresser could not make the hairstyle as they needed. So, both parties agreed to revisit later for the correction but the couple was still not satisfied with the hairstyle. Therefore, they came back again on Saturday with their 8-year-old daughter to negotiate with the shop owner. However, the negotiation reportedly turned into a quarrel as the customers allegedly claimed that they would sue the shop. The owner, who was later identified as Lek, reportedly grabbed a knife and stabbed the woman before turning to attack her husband.

Fine example of Thai over-reaction to loss of face in my opinion. 5 minutes of ego rage and 30 years in clink - she'll be 80 on release - or dead.

ronster Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Done it in front of their kid ? <deleted> ! Why would a beauty salon have a knife capable of killing 2 people laying around ? If it was a small knife for opening boxes etc then the guy must have went nuts to stab both to death with it ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" Later on the same day, Lek surrendered himself to the police and told the officials that the deceased came to get her hair done at the salon but there was a little problem, which he was not yet ready to provide more information at the moment. He also brought the weapon to the police station. Initially, he was charged with murder and carrying a weapon in the public. He was under police custody for further legal proceedings."

What is wrong with these people ? They seem to be full of hate and rage . Better they do some meditation about what life is about before they go to work . Now 2 are dead , the owner ( male or female ? ruined his / her life ) About what ? Thais in general seem to have a problem controlling themselves in situations that require to better stay calm . The land of smiles ? My ass ... , it's a dangerous country full of people that never reach the level of self control that is required to live in a community ...

Popular Post 2long Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 I think it's fair to say that IN GENERAL Thais are much calmer than us westerners, and we can get angry more quickly. My wife is forever wanting me to calm down and deal with things in the local way. However, I feel that westerners' ability to get angry quickly enables them to calm down quickly as well. When some Thais lose it, they really lose it and this incident is just one of many examples we read here and in the news. I feel so sorry for the poor child, because regardless of whoever will raise her from now on, and how well she's raised, she will still have that awful memory of this terrible event. The salon owner deserves all that's coming to him, and more. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is about a culture that creates people who can kill others over something very benign in nature. Perhaps starting with getting rid of 'Wais' , particularly for children, as it may very well prevent them from expressing feelings, so preventing them from learning on how to deal with feelings in their youth. Combined with getting rid of the 'Kha' and 'Khap', which also hide any other feeling from being expressed. But changing a culture, one hell of a task.... 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Yet another example of how cheap life is here. Dare to complain about a haircut and be stabbed to death. By the way, I've seen three different reports on this, with the child said to be 5, 7 and 8. More great Thai reporting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 "...they came back again on Saturday with their 8-year-old daughter to negotiate with the shop owner." There is the flaw: never have an 8 year old do the negotiating, even if it is the daughter and not the spoiled son. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
