Already the witch hunt has begun, and businesses that have operated unhindered for decades are under scrutiny. A daycare (of all things) was raided on koh Phangan as a follow-up on this bull<deleted>. Hundreds of nominee companies have received communications asking for information about their company structure. Say what you want about legality, but these folks, generally speaking, were following convention, but now someone has upset the apple cart These people cannot see further than their noses. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

traveller101 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 A member of this forum comprehensively summed up the majority opinion of this board (32 emojs of approval vs 4 of the opposite) regarding the swiss guy's persona. Based on two facts: Verbal assault and a kick (unintentional or otherwise to be determined by a judge overseeing his trial based on available evidence). Cutting in front of an Ambulance on non-urgent business (no lights and sirens) and verbally assaulting the driver accompanied by rude hand gestures. It is not known what exactly triggered this vile behaviour. Also worthy of a mention are lots of unsubstantiated posts without providing evidence circulating on social media describing alleged wrongdoing by the swiss guy. The all-encompassing character analyses based on the above states: ● He is unhinged and mad at the world. ● He is a perennial troublemaker ● He is a tiny moron living beachfront. What is wrong with him? ● He is a complete butthead and proved that over and over again. ● What mental disease does this idiot have? ● It is 'likely' that his mother was thankful when he left Switzerland. Seriously??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, being here many years, we have always had naughty farangy stories here, after all, naughty farangy's think LOS is a soft touch, police sparse, yet, when a farangy gets cornered, farangy's on here start screaming..........So funny..........😂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are quite clearly not a rational or mature group of people and as their comments about the incident on soi 11, they are evidently bare faced liars into the bargain. Always take what anyone says here with a pinch of salt, especially in the case of Swissman David. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEN Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 It is off course absolutely not ok to kick, shub or accidentally fall onto someone, but deportation without any real damage on the Doctor? Why is nobody questioning how the Doctor and friend came from Taste Yamu Restaurant to the beach on the east side of Yamu? It looks like it is a private village and security/entrance is just next to Taste Yamu, but even after passing the security guard the only way to the beach is through private villas. Or 4km by car and 1.5km along the beach at low tide. It was low tide, but how did the 2 ladies plan to get back to public road in this case? Or a boat? "Could" she be a very clever Doctor with a very long nose, looking for an alternative income? Public beach is off course what it is, but it looks like there are very limited "legal" entrance options to this public beach? How can they walk to this side of the beach legally? Seems like a long walk only for watching the full moon? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecyclist Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 8 hours ago, mania said: Good & deported is the proper route but due to violence it should be after times served On the second Swiss the pics of the Thai lady he mauled was terrible & not a scratch on himself. I would like to see or hear more about that case as it is extreme & odd at the same time They say no cctv footage available yet say many bystanders saw & testified. That means in today's world there is also a lot of phone videos. But also makes me wonder how so many could stand by & watch yet not help Would be great to get a more detailed account of what went down. Did she call him a farang khee nok or a farang waterbuffalo ? Been called that many times by Thais for no other reason than that I am a farang. But I always restrict my reactions to fantasizing violent reprisals . Some aggressive personalities have a hard time controlling their violent impulses, a lot of them are Thai, now we learnt that some of them are Swiss. 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I not bother what happens to the swiss guy but clearly you are you tried to down play the statement from Police Colonel Itthipol Itthisaranachai, Superintendent of Immigration Division 6, The report highlighted the individual's behavior, indicating multiple incidents of misconduct, totaling 3-4 times, which adversely affected the peace and happiness of the people in the country, posing a threat to society. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=saved&v=419778263900124 You stated it was A nonsense article adding fuel to the fire. Multiple incidents of misconduct which are completely unsubstantiated. I would suspect that the Police have access to information that is not in the public domain Remember his visa was revoked under section 12 Immigration Act, B.E. 2522 7 Having behavior which would indicated possible danger to the public or likelihood of being a nuisance or constituting any violence to the peace or safety of the public or to the security of the public or to the security of the nation, or being under warrant of arrest by competent officials of foreign governments. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were, his initial refusal to apologise should be evidence of his innocence. Cherry picking from what I'm saying to continue your bizarre crusade is... bizarre. It's the video. And witnesses. And his apology (and presumed admission of guilt). It's not the one thing -- his apology -- as you keep implying. All of it points to the fact that he likely physically assaulted. Go ahead and respond with your next version of "But an apology doesn't mean he did it" or "He's my best friend" or whatever. Who cares, you're talking to no one but yourself. I'm done with this stupid back and forth. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul1804 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I wonder if he really did full on kick the doctor or did he nudge her with his foot and she calls it being kicked? There is always 2 sides to a story, surely the guys got more common sense and decency than kicking a lady thats sitting wether he feels its on his rented step or otherwise! If he did give her a real kick then sure, charge him with a hefty fine and then deport him with a ban on re entering Thailand but only after the facts are revealed and the legal process is followed. The sad thing about it is if she were a peasant girl then most likely nothing would probably happen. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
