Phuket police yesterday morning arrested a Ukrainian woman for spray painting slogans critical of Russia at a popular viewpoint.

 

The 34 year old woman spray painted “#Russia is a terrorist state,” and “#Russia” on rocks and a bench at Khao Khad Viewpoint in the Wichit sub-district of Phuket’s main city district.

 

Wichit Police tracked the woman down through CCTV footage. Officers arrested her and brought her to Wichit Police Station to charge her with vandalism.

 

Wichit Police Chief Colonel Chatree Chookaew said the woman told police that she did not mean to “destroy the image of Phuket in any way,” but only wanted to express her views on Russia’s aggression toward her country. She has promised not to repeat her actions if she visits Phuket or Thailand in the future.

Who remembers that Scouser in Chiang Mai? Spray painting that wall, didn't he get some jail? 

I don't remember this case. But I know what to spray to earn a few years.

Can not be discussed here.

Or was it just damaging a cultural site?

 

I don't expect this Ukrainian to get severe fine or the like.

But Thai government is sure not keen to fight a foreign war with paroles here. Bad for business.

Personally make her scrub it off vandalism is what it is ! Send her back go fight if it means that much too her !  instead of laying around on ⛱️ spraying graffiti on bridges or landmarks in country your holidaying in while others are dieing for Ukraine or Russia ! unless you're conscientious objector to war , make peace sign ☮️✌️ plaque

How can you unintentionally buy spray paint and then graffiti in multiple places but not mean too. I say make her physically clean and remove it all and then charge her, fine her and blacklist her. Absolute scum when people think it's OK to destroy other people's property. 

Destroy? Perhaps you mean deface? The rocks and concrete she painted are still there you know.
