Trump Works at McDonald’s claims Kamala Harris 'never has

[renaissanc]

Maybe the prosecution couldn't prove that the Swiss man didn't slip.

[jippytum]

This doctor is determined to make an example of a foreigner. 

This case was a  minor assault case at best and has been decided in court. 

This karen is not seeking justice but has lost face after the court verdict did not agree with her version of events. 

[ujayujay]

...."..David slipped on the steps and accidentally struck Dr Thandao."   Oh yes, that sounds absolutely believable

Well this is going to get interesting 

It was a farce  getting thrown out by the Judge in the first place 

I hope justice prevails and the doctor gets her day in court 🙏

Moreover, the verdict said, the CCTV footage does not show Fehr kicking Thandao until she fell forward as she testified to police.

 

Maybe something lost in translation?

Yes you are very right but we are guests of this country and must respect all Thais, we are all here because generally Thais are beautiful and caring people.

Personally, I prefer to respect all  people actually deserving of it . Sadly. Thai in general, respect money and status. seemingly  regardless of how it may have been obtained.

That's also why we are all invited here !😁

i think it likely that some physical contact took place which is technically assault but this is getting ridiculous, apologize and move on

Apology not acceptable.  Would you move on if someone kicked you in the back?  I think we all (except you of course) share in the doctor’s disgust of a man who would touch a woman.  He may have paid 2m baht, by way of small brown envelope, to someone to help him. But like others before him it was too little too late.  Be sensible David, turn over your elephant park and pray to Buddha.   

[Frankie baby]

Lets face it, if this guy gave her a proper kick in the back she's going to be poleaxed for quite sometime.

However, she did a good bit of running around after the event, hence cant have suffered much from the initial claim.

Seems even the court is agreed on that.

Absolutely not, I never worry about defamation laws. They were written by and for cowards.

 

Never cower in the face of extreme ignorance and injustice. 

[Aussie999]

There's a lot of negative comments regarding the Swiss guy... first, I do not know him, so, all I can say is... we weren't there, and the Thai system has dismissed the charges, so accept the courts decision, irrespective of your personal, non informed opinion, why are the dogs so quick to bite the foreigners, on this forum... if you can prove he is guilty then you should have informed the police.

A gripping legal battle is heating up in Phuket as the lawyer representing a woman doctor challenges the court’s shocking decision to dismiss her assault case against a Swiss man. Dr Thandao Chandam claims she was kicked in the back by 45 year old Urs Fehr, also known as David, while she sat outside his villa on Yamu Beach in Thalang district on February 24.

 

The court threw out the case on September 3, citing insufficient evidence against Fehr. But Dr Thandao’s legal eagle, Niphit Intharasombat, isn’t backing down. He’s filing an appeal to the Supreme Court, insisting that the testimonies of Dr Thandao and her colleague, who witnessed the incident, are far more credible than Fehr’s version of events.

 

Fehr reportedly lost his cool over what he believed was trespassing. The situation escalated after Dr Thandao’s companion apologised and tried to leave, accepting Fehr’s claims of ownership. Niphit alleges that when they returned to the scene, Fehr attempted a second attack on the 27 year old woman, visibly enraged and further inflamed by the presence of his wife, said Niphit.

“Two police officers arrived and separated the parties involved. They held mediation for over three hours, focusing on the issues of trespass and assault.”

Niphit emphasised that forensic examinations confirmed Dr Thandao’s injuries.

 

“The doctor and her colleague wouldn’t have alerted the security guard if she hadn’t been attacked.”

The appeal lodged with the Phuket Kwaeng Court seeks the Supreme Court’s intervention to reopen the case and reassess the evidence.

 

Dr Thandao’s legal team is optimistic that the appeal will lead to a fresh evaluation of the alleged assault, determined to ensure that justice is served, reported Phuket news.

 

Original story: Swiss man acquitted in Phuket court for kicking woman doctor

 

A Swiss man charged with kicking a woman doctor on the steps leading down to a beach outside his villa in February was acquitted by Phuket Kwaeng Court yesterday.

 

The court extended the benefit of the doubt to the 45 year old Swiss expat Urs Fehr, also known as David. Details of the court’s ruling remain undisclosed.

 

David faced accusations of kicking 26 year old Dr Thandao Chandam in the back while she and a friend watched the full moon on steps at Yamu beach, adjacent to his rented villa in Thalang district on February 24. Following the incident, the Swiss and his Thai wife apologised, claiming they thought the doctor was trespassing on their property. They explained that David slipped on the steps and accidentally struck Dr Thandao.

 

Subsequent investigations revealed that the steps to the beach were not part of the rented villa and were illegally constructed. Local officials later demolished the steps.

 

The incident generated significant public outrage and was widely covered in social and mainstream media. Residents demanded David’s expulsion, leading immigration police to revoke his visa, citing him as a societal threat. The Swiss appealed the revocation.

 

In addition to this incident, David was fined for a separate road rage altercation involving an ambulance driver. His foundation’s licence for elephant conservation was scrutinised, and officials revoked licences for a pistol and rifle registered to him and his foundation.

 

The court yesterday declared David not guilty of the incident that incited public outcry.

Kasem Chandam, Dr Thandao’s father, confirmed the court’s decision, stating that his daughter was upset by the ruling. He mentioned that her lawyers would request a full copy of the court’s judgement in the coming days.

So you believe everything you read in this forum....do you believe the doctor had verifiable "Injuries"..Do you actually believe this man kicked a woman in the back as reported....why did the court throw this out already?

[pacovl46]

The guy recorded it and it's in the video that he hit her, if I remember correctly. He should've never been acquitted and someone received a big fat envelope. I hope it goes through and the judge who acquitted him gets dismissed from his position! 

[Kerryd]

And how did he manage to get a pistol and a rifle registered in his name ?

And it seems he has a history of "anger issues". Road rage with an ambulance driver ?

Kicks a woman in the back for the heinious crime of sitting on some steps he had (illegally) built on public land near the beach ?

Methinks a quick check with Interpol might be in order to see if he's here because he can't go home.

I would love to have seen your reaction had you been sitting next to your wife/partner and this guy had come up and even 'gently' kicked her in the back and told her to get off his effing property.

 

Sorry old chap....no real harm done...toodle pip....something like that?

Where did it say he built the steps?   as far as I was aware the steps were built by the people who built the property he was renting

I have often said, on this forum.. the dogs are quick to condemn a foreigner, without knowing all facts.. there seems something very wrong with many forum members, they seem to think all Thais are perfect, all foreigners are evil... I simply do not understand their attitude.
