Community Mother Seeks Justice After Foetus Dies Following Transfers Between Four Hospitals
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A grieving mother has turned to a Thai women’s and children’s rights foundation after losing her unborn baby following a series of hospital visits and transfers. The mother, who had been experiencing labour-like symptoms, was injected with medication to delay delivery at multiple hospitals, before being told her baby had died. The case came to light when the mother, known under the pseudonym “Mrs. Nid”, aged 40, travelled from Kamphaeng Phet province to the Pavena Foundation for Women and Children in Pathum Thani. She reported that she had been transferred between four hospitals before being informed that her baby had died in utero. Mrs. Nid, who was expecting her third child—a baby girl due in June—said she first sought medical help on 17 April after waking up with painful uterine contractions. She went to her district hospital, where doctors said she showed signs of premature labour. She was given two injections in the right hip and four oral pills to halt labour, spaced 30 minutes apart. Following the medication, she experienced symptoms of palpitations and profuse sweating and was kept overnight for observation. As the symptoms persisted, she was referred the next day to a second hospital, where similar treatment was administered. After two more nights in hospital, she was discharged on 20 April with a referral to a more advanced hospital in Nakhon Sawan for 23 April. While at home awaiting the appointment, she noticed that the baby’s movements had reduced. On 23 April, at the third hospital, an ultrasound revealed the devastating news: the baby had died. “The doctor said, ‘The baby has died, did you know?’ I was in shock,” Mrs. Nid told the foundation. She was then referred to a fourth hospital back in Kamphaeng Phet for delivery. Labour was induced with medication on 25 April, and the lifeless baby was born on the evening of 26 April. Mrs. Nid, deeply distraught, contacted the Pavena Foundation asking for an investigation into the cause of her baby’s death. The foundation’s founder, Pavena Hongsakul, immediately contacted Kamphaeng Phet’s provincial health chief Dr. Prinya Nakpunubut to launch an investigation. While Mrs. Nid was still hospitalised, officials from the provincial health office visited her to gather details. Upon her release from hospital on 28 April, Pavena coordinated with local police to transport the baby’s body to the Police General Hospital’s Forensic Institute in Bangkok for autopsy. The foundation also covered fuel costs for the journey and has pledged to ensure full transparency and justice for the family. The case will be escalated to Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsuthin, via his assistant Dr. Thanakrit Jitareerat. Additionally, social welfare authorities in Kamphaeng Phet have been asked to visit the family and offer support. The Pavena Foundation has vowed to closely monitor the case and coordinate efforts between the provincial public health office and the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security to ensure the family receives answers and proper assistance.

Crime Factory Worker Arrested for Loan Sharking at 280% Interest
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Police have arrested a 45-year-old factory worker in Samut Sakhon for operating an illegal money-lending scheme targeting his colleagues, charging an extortionate annual interest rate of 280% and confiscating borrowers’ ATM cards and PINs as collateral. The suspect, identified only as Mr. Chet, was taken into custody at a rented room in Khok Kham Subdistrict, Mueang District. The operation was led by Pol. Lt. Gen. Thaspoom Charuprach, commander of the Economic Crime Suppression Division (ECSD), with Pol. Col. Mekpisarn Sripirom and Pol. Lt. Sathitphakorn Taengrot leading the arrest. Authorities confiscated key evidence, including one mobile phone, one tablet, a notebook used for debt records, and 26 ATM cards belonging to borrowers. According to investigators, Mr. Chet had been employed at a local factory but had secretly operated an illegal loan business for the past three to four years, primarily lending to fellow factory workers. He charged interest rates vastly exceeding the legal limit, reportedly up to 280% per year. To secure the loans, borrowers were required to hand over their salary ATM cards and provide their PINs. In the event of missed payments, Mr. Chet would either withdraw funds directly from the victims’ accounts or resort to public shaming by posting defamatory messages about the defaulters on social media. Following an investigation that confirmed unlawful activity, police obtained a search warrant and raided Mr. Chet’s residence, where they found conclusive evidence leading to his arrest. During questioning, the suspect admitted to running the loan scheme independently and confirmed he primarily targeted co-workers from the same factory. Mr. Chet has been charged with operating an unlicensed money-lending business, charging illegal interest rates, and employing intimidation tactics in debt collection. He has been handed over to the ECSD’s Investigation Subdivision 5 for legal proceedings. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-10.
