webfact Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Daily News Thai Caption: Does he have depression? Thai media was full of reports of a horrendous attack on a security guard by a house owner at a housing estate on the Hathairat Road in the Samwa area of the Thai capital Bangkok yesterday morning. A video published by Amarin TV of CCTV at the control point at the entrance to the estate showed a man with a baseball bat stride up and batter a man out of shot 14 times at 7.54. Picture: Daily News The grievously injured guard is fighting for his life in hospital with a fractured skull and broken arm. The father of the attacker said he had no idea what it was about but that his son is clinically depressed. He would take care of everything on behalf of his son. Daily News followed up with a visit to the estate. They spoke to Wathin Sudta, 46, who said that the victim was his colleague and head of the morning shift Montree Khamsingnork, 27. Picture: Daily News They were employees of the Rungpetch Engineering Guard Co. He said that around 8 am a 30-35 year old man in white shirt and black shorts walked up after he had just got back from buying ice at the behest of Montree, the shift leader. He hit Montree nearly 20 times despite the colleague's "wai" in an effort to stop the attack. The assailant was shouting: "Maa daa goo thammai" - why did you have a go at me? Wathin said that Montree has been a guard for many years and had no issues with anyone and had not mentioned any problems to him. It was all caught on CCTV. Picture: Daily News At 12.30 relatives of the stricken guard went to the Khanna Yao police to file a complaint and submitted the CCTV. The father of the assailant turned up to say that his son had got a bachelor's degree many years ago but had been unable to find work and got stressed. This developed into clinical depression. He had no idea what sparked him off. He said he would accept full responsibility on behalf of the son and visit the victim in hospital. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2023-02-15 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post kotsak Posted February 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2023 Right.. Before we had "microsleep" and all that crapola as an excuse, now we have "depressed". Someone is going hard in the dictionary trying to find excuse words for why adults in this country act like brats.. 10 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might take a bit more than a basket of chicken delight and a Wai to sort this out. Your son should be arrested and on the way to court followed by jail time for attempted manslaughter. 7 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it is not racist! Try a dictionary before posting. Thailand is a country and scratch the surface and its very violent and offence is a go to excuse for killing someone and happens almost on a daily occurrence. Thai on Thai or Thai on foreign it matters not even old or young so all walk on egg shells..... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confuscious Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 I hate to say it, but the monkey with a bat will have his father "paying" for everything and the guard is a poor guy with a poorer family who will happily not put any charges by seeing a few 10,000 baht notes. Without the guard or his family putting charges, the case is dismissed. Sad but true. TIT 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 The near total lack of community based mental health resources in Thailand leads to such violent behavior. Where ya gonna go? Any of you seen counseling offices in your neighborhood or local hospital? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
