Bangkok Care Centre Faces Scrutiny Over Abuse Allegations
Picture courtesy of Channel 3 In a troubling revelation, an elderly man suffering from Alzheimer’s was reportedly abused at a care centre in Bangkok's Bang Kapi district. His daughter, Tayanat Kajornnapapong, has bravely exposed the incident after facing dismissive attitudes from both the Bang Kapi care centre staff and local police. Striving for justice for her 77-year-old father, Jongkit, Tayanat decided to go public with her story following failures by the care centre to address the situation adequately. The centre initially refused to provide the CCTV footage that captured the alleged abuse and even threatened legal action against Tayanat for her persistence in unveiling the truth. Tayanat explained her ordeal in an interview with Channel 3 yesterday, March 23. As a daily worker, she entrusted her bedridden father's care to the centre, paying a substantial 30,000 Baht monthly. She noticed something amiss in January when her father, Jongkit, used his left hand to support his right while eating, citing pain. She also discovered bite marks on his wrist. During the festive Chinese New Year, Tayanat distributed cash gifts to the caretakers and sought her father's opinion on each of them. In an alarming remark, Jongkit identified one caretaker as "evil," speaking in Chinese. Seeking clarity, Tayanat demanded CCTV evidence from the care centre. After initial refusals, she managed to obtain footage that confirmed her suspicions. However, filing a complaint at the Lat Phrao Police Station and reaching out to the Department of Health Service Support resulted in disappointing inertia. Driven by a steadfast desire for accountability, Tayanat approached renowned lawyer Paisarn Rueangrit, amplifying her call for action. This prompted a response from Thanakrit Jit-areerat, Assistant to the Minister of Public Health, promising an imminent raid on the care centre. This incident has spotlighted concerns within elderly care facilities, highlighting issues of neglect and lack of accountability in the protection of vulnerable individuals. Tayanat’s courageous stance may well catalyse reforms, with authorities now compelled to scrutinise operations within such institutions. The unfolding story underscores the critical need for vigilance, transparency, and empathy in care settings, urging stricter oversight to ensure the safety and dignity of those unable to advocate for themselves, reported The Thaiger -- 2025-03-25 -

Injured Khao Yai Elephant Rescued from Snare Trap
Picture courtesy of Matichon. A wild elephant known as “Chao Nga Diao” (One-Tusk) was successfully rescued after being found with a snare trap tightly wound around its trunk, causing severe swelling and distress. Veterinarians and park rangers worked through the night to free the animal. On 24 March, wildlife officials from Khao Yai National Park’s Khon 13 (Nang Rong) unit, along with veterinarians from Protected Area Regional Office 1 (Prachinburi) and a disaster response team, launched a mission to locate and rescue Chao Nga Diao. The operation was initiated after a local resident captured footage of the elephant crossing a road in Sarika Subdistrict, Mueang District, Nakhon Nayok on 22 March, revealing an apparent swelling on its trunk caused by a constricting object. With thermal drones deployed to aid the search, the team focused on an area near a private golf course adjacent to the national park, a known habitat for wild elephants. At approximately 00:30 on 24 March, Chao Nga Diao was sighted. Rescuers carefully guided the elephant to a safe location, where it was sedated to allow for the removal of the snare, a thick, 90-centimetre-long metal wire looped tightly around its trunk. The operation was completed by 04:00. Veterinarians administered drugs to help awaken the elephant, closely monitoring its condition to ensure it could walk normally before withdrawing from the area. Officials will continue to track Chao Nga Diao to assess its recovery and prevent further injuries. Wildlife authorities are investigating the source of the snare, which is believed to have been set for illegal poaching or trapping. -- 2025-03-25 -

Police Face Backlash Over refusing to say that wanted ‘female’ is actually male
My personal favourite from the UK was when the police were looking for a dangerous black man. They described him as a male in a red jumper. -
