    Tough guy, kicks a woman who is sitting down in the back. Deport this fool.    Poor woman, I hope she is OK. 🙏

    In both scenarios of this situation, I see the swiss guy as totally guilty.   1-  A foreigner living in Thailand, being the first to become agressive and violent over no provocation from the

And as you're a stickler for details where's the proof of this past incident?

It was reported in the original article when this palaver started.

Seems you're keen to defend this creep and, to be honest, I didn't expect that.

Nowhere have I defended his actions.

Yes, and it was said by him as an attempt to justify what he did. We only have his word of this past incident with "the Chinese", no proof whatsoever. And even if it is true it does not justify his actions - it is completely irrelevant.

He should receive the same punishment as if he kicked a Burmese migrant worker.

 

The punishment should not be based on status. Oops, I forget where I was for a minute. 

 

 

Over-entitled foreigner behaving in a totally unacceptable way. Ordinary locals probably couldn’t do much about it but this doctor could. Looks like he’s guilty and should be deported.

We now learn that he built the steps on public land. Glad to see that the Thai couple are professional people and unlikely to be bought off with 5,000 baht compensation. Jail and then Deport this Coward.

I thought all beaches in Thailand are public. so all people have access!

so why this Swiss clown bosses the two ladies away from the steps that lead to his (rented) villa? 

 

Probably for the same reason Thais block public roads with traffic cones and other items outside their homes.

Why doesn't he just claim mental illness to excuse his behaviour, just as many Thais do?

What happened before is that other people where on public property which he claimed being his and then him going ape<deleted>. 

This is a very clear case but still you are looking for ways to discredit Thai people, get a life.

So Thai people are angels don't make mistakes??? I have a happynlife but I am wondering how Thai life would be if no foreigners came to the country anymore...  Maybe  a bit less foreignphobic would give you a better life too

"Mind harm"????

 

Can't find anything on Google about "mind harm" - "self harm" - yes!

 

Is that a Thai way of saying "psychological damage"? 

 He is being charged with Mind & bodily harm .

She’s gonna get compensated for the 

psychological damage these events have  created,( Stress) between the kick and the Swiss wife’s verbal abuse , if found 

in the Dr favor,the damage  should be substantial me thinks.

I agree - rich farang - big damages! Poor Thai - 500 baht fine and a wai!

I wasn’t there but from what my resident Thai expert claims they deserve everything coming their way.

 Som nam na , was my wife’s reaction.


my reaction is dont go around kicking people and using threats.

 Sounds like these two were very arrogant!

So, it is perfectly okay to act like he did? And then the longer this case is under the spotlight their business is watched up on to, and discover fraud, running a sanctuary under false cause.

From looking at the photo of her back, I personally can't see any visible marks or bruising, it's the verbal abuse that may of done the most harm.....

Where did you get that nonsense from? 🤨

 

I posted nothing of the sort.

Don't they have better things to be p'ed off about? 

 

Plenty more pressing issues that deserve attention over and above this Swiss idiot and his Thai wife.

In a Western country it’s a case of assault and would be dealt with in a minor court without much fuss and bother. A fine, suspended sentence maybe. Over and done with.

 

Threatening somebody to get shot, believably, in front of a witness (there were two women) and then going on to threaten them further in presence of police would make this quite the bother also in a Western country. As would attacking somebody from behind and unprovoked, which proves malice.

 

The added dimension in Thailand is, that he quoted his 'big' connections, but there he is very, very obviously outgunned. Here, obviously, the outcome will be a lot harsher than in a western coutnry -- but if you try to use 'connections', you should/would be well aware that this could backfire this way.

good job,  charge him fine him and put him in jail for a while then depot back to where he came from.

Here us the problem I have with all these judges (expats) and their punishments….they are worthless b/c based on used toilet paper 

 

just follow whatever law applies to the incident, have a trail and whatever the verdict is…

 

decisions should be based law and order not feelings or opinions

Plus one, and nationality of both parties shouldn't come into play.

That video shows only his shadow and then something that could be his going arse over tit and telling them to "Get the fck off, get the fck off!" here, it doesn't clarify anything about a kick, if that was your intention.

It was my intention to show that he started very aggressive and being an utter fool.
