Slap on the wrist a fine and a Wai and he’s good to go. And they wonder why no one is scared of the police.

    Uh-oh     another crazy.   Good to see the cops upped their game from last week having blown it dealing with the Belarusian madman in his underpants.   Visa-free entry process work

    What visas are these guys on now? Do they still get the special longer tourist visas than lots of others? I noticed in a DTV podcast the other day they are not in the top 5 nationalities receiving it.

Police arrested a Russian man who went on a violent rampage at a hotel in the Choeng Thale area of Phuket, physically assaulting other hotel guests and Thai police officers.

 

Officers from Choeng Thale Police Station were called to the hotel to contain the situation after the Russian man, identified only as Sharapov, attacked other guests with a knife. Fortunately, the victim reportedly suffered only minor injuries.

 

When police arrived at the scene, they attempted to persuade Sharapov to surrender, but he refused. Sharapov continued to cause chaos, brandishing the knife at anyone who approached him. Police officers were attacked but their conditions were not revealed.

 

Police were ultimately forced to use physical measures to subdue the suspect. A photograph shared by the Phuket Times shows that Sharapov sustained injuries, including wounds to his mouth and hands, as well as bloodstains on his legs and arms.

 

 

 

Sharapov was taken to Thalang Hospital for treatment and will later be transferred to Choeng Thale Police Station for further legal proceedings.

 

The charges and penalties against Sharapov have not yet been officially disclosed. However, in a similar case, anyone causing public disturbances are often charged under Section 378 of the Criminal Law, which carries a fine of up to 5,000 baht.

 

Additionally, as Sharapov caused physical injury to another person, he could face up to two years’ imprisonment, a fine of up to 40,000 baht, or both.

Police have not yet confirmed the motive behind Sharapov’s rampage.

You think mental illness (if it is?) has to be punished? With death?

Sounds like euthanasia.

So, you you're being attacked with a knife as cops were and what? You're going to first determine his mental state?

There will be plenty of them about when the invasion of Ukraine is over, and they come home from the front line, from both sides

Putin says it is not an invasion but a minor correction.😂

I've done it months ago in 7/11, explaining the concept of queuing in an orderly fashion, they are not belligerent when you are belligerent 

In two items of unrelated news,

 

Phuket hospital  has reported several police officers were treated for bruised knuckles and sprained toes.

 

Local shoe repairmen are offering a  special service for boots and shoes that have dented toe caps.

Was thinking same thing.

It may be because if he falls, hits his head and dies the Police are blamed.  Looks bad if media broadcast it around globe.

 

Additionally Police are generally more tolerant and use those long restraint poles for similar situations.

Hey Hypocrite. Since you like to fight so much why dont you go back n be in the front line instead hiding over here like a pussy. Deport the idiot

When police arrived at the scene, they attempted to persuade Sharapov to surrender, but he refused. 

 

The cops should have pumped a few rounds into that scumbag.

So Thailand would not have wasted any tax payers' money on that vermin.

Cambridge Massachusetts - Harvard, I presume you are Scottish :wink:

The Thai police are to be commended for only using lethal force as a last resort. American police are often insanely trigger happy, with the lethal force often directed at racial minorities and those with mental disabilities. Those with a "shoot first, ask questions later" law and order mentality might want to consider the possibility that lethal force could one day be used against you or a loved one. 

Putin needs him for the front line he can use up his anger management there
