The Court can ban them from leaving Thailand and impose reporting conditions, but not confiscate their documents. Only a Thai citizen must hand over their Passport.

Bert got kinky Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 21 minutes ago, AlQaholic said: They both confessed to the crime, according to article. Source article says they where tailgating the motorcycle and sounding their horn, whereby the motorcycle stopped at the side of the road, because the driver thought they needed help. He went up to the Porsche, now parked across the road, holding up all traffic, and asked in English if they needed help. Then the passenger got out and the rest is obvious from the video. Driver I think is as much part of the assault as the passenger, firstly he tailgated and honked, and then failed to just drive away, allowing the passenger do what he did. But there seems to be more to this story, why the tailgating and honking? Did the Thai guy really just walk up and offer help, or was there something else entirely? Source article says they where tailgating the motorcycle and sounding their horn And who made that 'new' statement? Why is this only being mentioned now? Too much missing from this story.

Its apparent that its not at all clear what exactly happened and why. It could be the French guys started the fight, or maybe an argument ensued? Anyway until it goes to court and a judge declares them guilty, they re not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I bought a new car the Dealer clearly told me "Do not drive with red plates at Night" I think it was after 9PM and also if I wanted to go to another district i had to write that down in red plate driving journal BEFORE I left. I see nothing wrong with that when driving on temporary licens plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see him pulling punches.... Correct - he kicked the French guy and got punched in response. Trying to walk away got kicked again by the Thai.

spidermike007 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) If the Frenchmen did as they were accused, I hope they are severely punished. For some reason, Samui has always attracted a bad element. We don't need the bad PR. Especially those of us who treat the Thais with a great deal of affection and respect. Don't beat up the Thais! Lock up the goons. Edited October 18, 2022 by spidermike007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It matters a great deal - self defence. If someone initiates a physical assault on you and you reasonably react to that in kind ,the offence of assault is still by the assailant. That the assailant comes off worse doesn’t undo his guilt . 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrules Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I wonder why they were both arrested? Is it a crime to simply watch or be present at a street brawl these days? I once saw a brawl between a few Thais where one killed the other with a machete, nothing to do with me, I carried on drinking my beer in the distance. The injured party went to hospital and died later. The cops didn't look for witnesses, nobody cared as it was a group of low level scumbags fighting between themselves, the machete guy did a couple of years in prison and was released long ago.

Popular Post seedy Posted October 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2022 Hmmm - let's see ... #1 Thai guy on a motorbike picking his wife up from work. #2 Foreigner driving an over 7 million THB car Only damage I can see is the lower LH corner of the bumper cover. So he risked it all for that limited amount of damage ? Road Rage ? Roid Rage ? Or just stupidity ? Anywho ... good laugh reading all the comments Hope the victim in hospital recovers fully and quickly 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats makes things worse is that the video has been edited for some reason? Well, it could be a cover up. Who knows? But, the reality is we are guests in Thailand. And everything must be done to maintain respect. Even if confronted by a Thai, every effort must be made to defuse the situation. Unfortunately, there have always been a disproportionate number of aggressive foreigners, and Thais on Samui. I had to defuse some Thais who wanted to fight a number of times there. Did it with a sober head, humility and apologies for a perceived slight, to an overly sensitive ego, belonging to an emotionally under developed man.

How could that be mitigated? Straightforwardly- kicking and punching as responding in kind to what he received,so proportionate. Had he responded with a deadly weapon then that might be construed as disproportionate. That his punch turned out to be more effective and the guy fell over and hit his head cannot be construed in the same category of intent as producing a weapon. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
