Fozfromoz Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Just another case of anger management. Thai style. Telling porkies too. Don't know why the lazy Sob couldn't put it in himself, if its like the one in the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know why the lazy Sob couldn't put it in himself, if its like the one in the pic. Unlike Australia in Thailand most air-conditioning firms offer free installation upon purchase of a unit. You don't often see anything other than split systems in Thailand, not many (if any) of the single unit systems shown in the photo around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barabbas Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Why would he bring a gun to the AC store and expect somebody would be shooting at him in the first place?

MikeOboe57 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Anurak was arrested for illegal possession and misuse of a firearm in public. Misuse? I always thought that these thingies were made to punch holes into people. Even funnier is the fact that he is not charged with attempted manslaughter or at least negligently causing grievous bodily harm. Seems the BiB have to check first whether their client is "connected" so they don't run into an embarrassing situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either he had been misbehaving earlier, or amphetamines were taking their toll on him... Probably for the same reason that a MP took a gun to dinner where he took it out to remove a 'jammed round' which resulted in him 'accidentally' shooting and killing his secretary who also happened to be his ex-wife! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asiawatcher Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 The whole story is so far fetched it is hard to believe they even attempted to cover it up with tin kicking incident where this moron had to 'return fire'. But then carrying a pistol in an air conditioning shop? Nah... sorry. Attempted murder unless he pleads temporary insanity... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
