Popular Post khunpeer Posted March 2 Popular Post Share Posted March 2 7 hours ago, webfact said: Phuket –A Swiss Expat has been charged with bodily and mind harm after he allegedly kicked a female doctor near his rented villa in Thalang. On Friday (March 1st) Mr. Urs Beat Fehr (Mr. David), 45, presented himself at the Thalang Police Station after being summoned over the legal situation involving the viral incident. The Thalang Police Deputy Chief Colonel Anukun Nooket told the Phuket Express that David has been charged with bodily and mind harm. He is being accused of allegedly kicking a female doctor, Tandao Jandam, 26, who is a doctor at a private hospital in Phuket. She had been sitting on the bottom of steps on a public beach leading to his villa when the incident happened. The steps have since been deemed by Phuket officials public land and encroaching on the beach.

Clarkey611 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 The photo on the first page and the TV coverage at the Police Station leads me to believe that this is some sort of marketing campaign for the Elephant Sanctuary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 He stated that his privacy had been invaded earlier by several Chinese and that was the reason he was so angry. He just made things worse in my opinion, as his actions suggest that he thought he was kicking another pair of Chinese off his steps. With the Thai government's love fest for Chinese, this guy is just digging a deeper hole. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sydebolle Posted March 2 Popular Post Share Posted March 2 This isolated case of bad behaviour seems to me more of a smoke screen. The whole world is excited over the apparent misbehaviour of a dirty farang but the story must have a flip side. Let the Thai lady file a complaint with the police and get on with life; there is MUCH more newsworthy stuff going on than this. If he is guilty, then try to settle out of court and reprimand the culprit accordingly - everything else is ridiculous and certainly not beneficial to the "endeavours" of the local tourism boys in promoting quality tourism - me thinks ....... 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great defence, Because everyone knows that it's ok to abuse locals. LOL The man is an a-hole , I am sure this is not an isolated incident, this type pf behaviour does not exist in a vacuum. He makes us all look bad, make a public example of him. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dr B Posted March 2 Popular Post Share Posted March 2 In an earlier post on this, the Thai Doctor said that she offered 3 solutions at the time: 1 Both apologise to each other and walk away. 2 Neither apologises to the other and walk away 3 Legal proceedings It was stated that the Swiss aggressor declined to apologise, but still needed an apology from the Doctor. Now he wants to say he tripped, so it was an accident. If he tripped, why was it such a problem to apologise? Only now that he finds out what a mess he has landed himself in he wants to apologise. I am happy to say "Too late. You had your chance to be decent. Now take the consequences". 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcheech Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Just now, connda said: f it was a Thai guy kicking a foreign doctor, it would be a wai, and apology, and a 500 THB fine. I beg to differ. No 500 baht fine, & the Thai guy could phone in the apology so no wai either. That based on the Rimping Ping river store incident of a couple years back. Thai drop kicked an 80 plus y.o. farang into parked motorcycles. The perp phoned in an apology, & offered to cover medical expenses. Thai police gave the farang victim thirty days to press charges, as they did not. Now, he was not a Doctor to my knowledge, but... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Thai people only tell the story as it suits them You just can't accept that a Thai woman might be innocent and the farang in the wrong can you. Even the fat Swiss loser doesn't claim there was any history or anything else that happened before, only that he thought they might be Chinese.
