An Australian man, 60-year-old Mr. Ivica Djakovic, filed a police report in Pattaya after a heated road incident escalated into a terrifying altercation. The incident, which occurred late night on December 24, on Pattaya Second Road, Bang Lamung, Chonburi, involved a motorbike taxi driver wielding a cleaver.

 

At 23:45 Mr. Djakovic reported the incident to Police Lieutenant Mana Sak Phonlayiam of Pattaya City Police Station. According to the victim, the suspect, described as a man aged 30-35, was wearing an orange motorbike taxi vest and riding a black Honda Wave 125 with registration number from Chonburi.

 

The confrontation began when Mr. Djakovic’s motorbike and the suspect’s vehicle were involved in a minor collision. The two men argued before Mr. Djakovic fled the scene to avoid further conflict, heading into the alley where the incident escalated.

 

The motorbike taxi driver reportedly followed him, brandishing a cleaver and waving it threateningly while shouting profanities and threatening to attack the foreigner. The aggressive behaviour left Mr. Djakovic in fear for his safety, prompting him to seek police assistance.

 

A witness, 60-year-old Saichon, a friend of the Australian man, confirmed the details, stating that the suspect’s actions caused considerable alarm.

 

Police Lieutenant Mana Sak Phonlayiam summoned both parties to resolve the issue. However, Mr. Djakovic, still shaken by the incident, opted to file an official record of the event as evidence instead of pursuing further discussions.

 

The case remains under review as police determine the appropriate next steps.

Crikey, these elderly Aussie bikey gang members certainly cause trouble every where they go, murders, drugs etc, seems every week there's an incident that involves them, definitely overtaking Brits as Public Enemy Number One 🙃🙃

That should nail him.

[thenewgoo]

Was the altercation related to damage to the taxi bike? Or attempted exortion for 'damage'? Whatever, cleavers are not cool.

Does it really matter? The subject is man threatened with a meat cleaver by another man. Their name, height, weight or ethnicity doesn’t really matter, unless there is a desire to escalate any offense committed, to a hate crime ( if Thailand even has that distinction in its laws)

So many stupid comments here, where does it say this Aussie guy is in a motorcycle gang, where does it say anything that he is a criminal where does it say he was doing anything wrong except dealing with a motor bike taxi???? What does it matter his origin,, the facts are some. Low life taxi driver was welding a cleaver,,, wake up people if you don't have something decent to ad then be quite.  Oh and for the Brits here go look at the other story about a British women trying to have sex on a glass table that broke because her fat gut was to heavy,,,really quality people from England.

Well the non aboriginal Aussies all did descend from our thieves and prostitutes so it isn’t surprising that this Aussie has come full circle and is in Pattaya.

 

She was a well built girl like most of them are these days.

It says he was Australian, so a bit of profiling going on here!

What a sook, a real Aussie would have just moved on from it quickly not go crying to the Fuzz.
