A 66-year-old Swiss man endured a vicious attack by local youths in Pattaya, leaving him injured and his car severely damaged.

 

On the night of 15th December, Manoutcher Kamel Kamai, a Swiss national, reported the disturbing incident to the Pattaya City Police. With visible injuries, including facial swelling and cuts, Mr Kamai drove to the police station in tears seeking justice.

 

According to his statement, relayed through a translation app, the trouble started when he parked his Toyota Velos SUV on South Pattaya Road after dining nearby. Upon returning to his vehicle, he encountered a group of 4 to 6 teenagers surrounding his car.

The youths began smashing the car's windows with rocks. When Mr Kamai attempted to intervene, two of the assailants turned on him, kicking and punching him to the ground. Despite his pleas for mercy, the assault continued until a passerby intervened, prompting the gang to flee.

 

The police, having received Mr Kamai's detailed account, immediately broadcasted alerts to capture the suspects. Meanwhile, investigative teams have been dispatched to review CCTV footage and gather more evidence to track down the perpetrators for further legal action, reported Daily News.

It likely would not take much.... I was thinking they were perhaps lounging on his car and he asked them to move on!
