CCTV doesn’t show the names of people depicted, so is it that the police have prior knowledge of the individuals and recognize them when they see them on cctv, or do they wander the streets after the incident and look at peoples faces until they recognize them? Simple. The police just bring the footage and show local people in the brawl area to identify these trouble makers as they surely frequent these areas in ungodly hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre0720 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Five Thai men, with knives. Part of the culture. Including the numerous 'wai's', and Kaw Thots, hopefully after the beating and the stabbing. Also part of the culture. To indicate their respect and politeness. Also part of the culture... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the gang will probably walk. In the video the Thai in the white cap grabs a knife from a table, so that's somewhere to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afterall she would obviously have been "asking for it" 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though you would never catch me at a hell hole like bangala road anytime of the day, let alone at 4am, this guy did not deserve to be stabbed just because he was there. That is an absurd thing to suggest. bob. Edited May 21 by bob smith 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie baby Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Well done the police.... a little credit where its due. A month each in the monastery for the attackers, two months for the guy with the knife, and that should do it, back to normal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don't get into brawls with Thai men. Don't act like an idiot. 🙏 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingamabob Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 As others have said, in that area at 4.40 in the morning there is a lot of potential for trouble, mainly down to alcoholic excess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai justice system is built for confessions as a confession offer 50% off the time in jail. If other countries made the same offer, you would see it there too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the described ONE Thai man would appear in blurred view as 5. Which one you would smash first? 😂😂😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
