A 68-year-old man, known for years of disruptive behaviour, has been arrested by police in the Bang Phlat district after repeatedly throwing rubbish into his neighbours’ homes for over seven years and engaging in acts of public indecency.

 

The arrest followed complaints from local residents about Mr. Veerachat, who had been hurling trash into neighbouring properties on a daily basis. Police were also alerted to his public acts of stripping off his clothing and eating rotten food in front of others.

 

On 28 Aptil, officers from the Bang Phlat Police Station received a tip-off about the suspect’s ongoing activities. Upon investigation, they found Mr. Veerachat in an alley in the Charan 71 area, rummaging through garbage. When officers approached and requested a search, they discovered a short knife hidden in his bicycle.

 

After his arrest, it was revealed that Mr. Veerachat was already wanted for a previous assault charge. He had been named in a warrant issued by the Thonburi Criminal Court on 25 April 2025, under charges of inflicting bodily harm on another individual, causing both physical and psychological injury.

 

Authorities have confirmed that the suspect had never been arrested in connection with this earlier charge, despite the active warrant. The police have now proceeded with the legal process, and a record of his arrest has been provided to him.

A case of ineptitude or laziness ?

After 7 years the police is doing the job at last... Shameful to see how lazy the RTP is...

One of my neighbors is like that,always looking for trouble for as long as i have lived here.

Screaming at us,encouraging his dogs to bark at us and pulling plants out of our garden.

Two years ago it got really bad and he started to accuse me of doing illegal things.

within 2 months he called the police 3 or 4 times,each time accusing us of doing something .

The last two times we had to go to the local police station to get things sorted but he kept saying we were the

wrong doers.

The last time was about a year ago and we had to go to the police again!

After hearing him rant and rave for about an hour all was solved.

Now he does not even look at me anymore,ok the dogs still bark but i can deal with that.

 

 

It seems like he is around the same age as the members on Aseannow.
