Deadly Dispute Turns Festival into Tragedy in Southern Thailand

A shooting at the Kamlon Festival in Nakhon Si Thammarat on 30 July left one person dead and eight injured. The violence broke out after singer Baw Vee's performance, allegedly sparked by a dispute between the shooter, Ek Wangsai, and a lawyer named Aong, who had once represented a rival. Ek assaulted Aong before opening fire; a bystander trying to intervene was fatally shot. Police subdued Ek by shooting him. The incident follows a similar fatal shooting at Bangkok’s Songkran event in April, underscoring growing concerns over safety at public festivals.
