A 19-year-old university freshman in Thailand has been in a coma for six months following a brutal hazing incident in April. The assault took place at a university in Bangkok, where an older student admitted to kicking the victim in the chest during the hazing ritual.

 

The student's mother, Thanawan Pannoppha, expressed her frustration through Channel 7, revealing that no parties have accepted responsibility for her son's condition. The incident occurred on university grounds, and he is now in a hospital in Pathum Thani province, near Bangkok.

 

Thanawan initially received a call from a university professor on August 23, claiming her son fell from a fourth-floor staircase and was transported to the hospital.

 

However, upon arrival, she saw doctors performing CPR on him, raising suspicions as she doubted a fall could result in such life-threatening injuries. Medical staff informed her that her son had stopped breathing before reaching the hospital and was subsequently resuscitated.

 

A few days later, on August 28, a fellow student confessed to Thanawan that her son was kicked in the chest, which led to a seizure and prolonged unconsciousness.

 

She reported the confession to Dusit Police Station, though the investigation has seen little progress. The university has not taken any responsibility, citing an absence of security cameras and witnesses at the hazing location, on the building's fifth floor.

 

Determined to uncover the truth and seek justice for her son, Thanawan challenges the university's claims. Financially challenged, she depends on public healthcare for her son's treatment, who remains on life support.

 

Superintendent Nathatchapong Kiriram of Dusit Police Station insists that police efforts continue, with evidence collection underway. This tragic case underscores concerns about hazing practices and safety oversight in educational institutions.
