Police arrested a Thai caretaker for brutally abusing an 85 year old bedridden woman during her employment at the victim’s home in Bangkok.

 

The victim’s son sought help from non-profit organisation Saimai Survive after viewing the CCTV footage of the brutal abuse of his mother. He filed a complaint against the suspect, later identified as 49 year old Napasorn, with the police on July 12.

The case was transferred to the Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Bureau (IDMB). The son told the police that he turned to a Facebook group, Finding Caretaker for Elderly, to find someone to care for his old mother, Huay.

 

Napasorn contacted him and presented her experience as a caretaker, so the son hired her. Her employment began on June 11 but on July 1, Huay’s son and his wife noticed wounds and bruises on Huay’s face and body.

They then checked the security camera footage and saw Napasorn abusing Huay daily. She was seen pulling Huay roughly and beating her multiple times. The couple gathered all the evidence and summoned Napasorn for a discussion.

According to the couple, Napasorn admitted to the physical abuse with no remorse. She did not apologise and even dared the family to take legal action against her.

 

The couple researched social media and found many other victims who this woman had abused.

 

IDMB police officers arrested Napasorn outside a house in Soi Rat Khajon in the Huay Kwang district of Bangkok on December 17.

 

She was charged under Section 295 of the Criminal Code for physically assaulting another person, resulting in both physical and mental harm.

Napasorn denied the allegations, claiming she had never received a summons and was unaware that she faced legal charges. However, police were not convinced by her claim, given the clear evidence from the security cameras.

 

Napasorn faces a penalty of up to two years in prison, a fine of up to 40,000 baht, or both. No legal charges were filed against Huay’s son.

They did, and now you're nicked..

I just don't get how some people can be so abusive to children or the elderly or any other vulnerable, defenseless person.

An evil vindictive woman, I hope the old lady and family see justice done.
