Community Boy Found Barking Like a Dog After Years of Drug-Fuelled Neglect by Mother
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. In a deeply distressing case that underscores the ongoing impact of drug abuse, an eight-year-old boy in Uttaradit Province has been rescued after living in extreme neglect and reportedly communicating through barking like a dog. The boy, referred to as “A” for privacy reasons, was found living in squalid conditions with six dogs and minimal human interaction in Lap Lae District. His mother, a long-term drug user, failed to enrol him in school and kept him isolated from the community. With no friends and no education, the child developed canine-like behaviour, using barking sounds as his primary means of communication. The case came to light after a concerned school principal alerted The Foundation for Children and Women, led by renowned child rights advocate Paveena Hongsakul. A multi-agency rescue operation was quickly coordinated, involving local police, education authorities and officials from the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security. Authorities discovered the boy living in a dilapidated stilted wooden house alongside his 46-year-old mother, 23-year-old brother and several dogs. Both adults tested positive for drug use and have been charged with narcotics offences. Neighbours, who had long avoided the family due to erratic behaviour and frequent begging by the mother, revealed the child had no formal schooling and had become increasingly feral in his behaviour. “The boy had never attended kindergarten. Though his mother collected 400 baht in government education support, she failed to enrol him in school,” said Sopon Siha-ampai, Director of the local school. The child has now been placed under state protection at the Uttaradit Children’s Home. The Paveena Foundation is working closely with Dr. Thir Phawangkhanant, Deputy Secretary-General of the Basic Education Commission and Dr. Trin Kandokmai, Director of the Happiness and Safety Management Centre, to ensure he receives long-term psychological support and uninterrupted education. Authorities have pledged to closely monitor the case and provide ongoing rehabilitation for the child, whose condition highlights the tragic consequences of drug dependency on vulnerable family members. The rescue operation has sparked renewed calls for improved early intervention and social support mechanisms in communities grappling with substance abuse.

Mall Picture courtesy of Khaosod Police from Khok Khram Station swiftly apprehended a 23-year-old man suspected of snatching a gold bracelet worth approximately 52,000 baht from a well-known gold shop in a shopping mall in the Nawamin area of Bangkok. The incident occurred on June 30, when the suspect, later identified as Mr. Korakot, also known as “Tae”, entered the store pretending to browse gold jewellery. At approximately 20:15, he suddenly grabbed a 1-baht-weight gold bracelet and fled the scene on a dark blue Yamaha XMAX motorcycle, which had been parked with the engine running for a quick getaway. The shop staff immediately alerted Khok Khram Police Station, and the incident was reported to the command centre at 20:20. Officers quickly arrived at the scene to gather statements and review CCTV footage. The footage revealed the suspect had travelled to the Chu Suwan community, located in Soi Nawamin 78. Following this lead, police officers tracked the suspect down to the end of Soi Nawamin 78 in Bueng Kum District. At approximately 23:25 PM, three hours after the robbery, police arrested Mr. Korakot. The suspect was found in possession of the stolen gold bracelet and the motorcycle used in the crime. The operation was led by Pol. Lt. Gen. Siam Boonsom, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau and supervised by Pol. Maj. Gen. Nopphasin Poolsawat, Deputy Commissioner. The arresting team included Pol. Lt. Col. Trin Onnim, Deputy Superintendent of Khok Khram Station, and other investigating officers. Mr. Korakot has been charged with theft and is now in custody awaiting legal proceedings. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-07-02
