Crime Land Dispute Turns Deadly as Relatives Exchange Gunfire
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A long-running land dispute between relatives erupted into deadly violence on the afternoon of 4 June, in Surat Thani province, leaving one man dead and another critically injured after a gunfight broke out during a failed attempt to mediate the conflict. At approximately 17:00, police were alerted to a shooting in the Chuea Fueang area of Moo 2, Takuk Nuea subdistrict, in Wiwat District. Pol. Lt. Col. Pornthip Chumsri, an investigative officer at Wiwat Police Station, arrived at the scene alongside the district police chief, forensic officers from Region 8 and local rescue personnel. Investigators discovered pools of blood and spent cartridges from both 9mm and 11mm firearms scattered across the ground in Soi Mor Phon. Two men were seriously injured in the confrontation and were rushed to Wiwat Hospital. One of the victims, 54-year-old Mr. Kriatsak Sarot, suffered a gunshot wound to the right side of his chest and remains in critical condition. The second man, Mr. Narit Wirot, 35, sustained a gunshot wound to the head and later succumbed to his injuries. Authorities are currently seeking Mr. Apichet Sarot, Mr. Kriatsak’s son, who reportedly fled the scene following the incident. Ms. Yupawan Chanon, the 36-year-old wife of the deceased Mr. Narit, explained that although Soi Mor Phon is a public road, it runs through land owned by the opposing family. This access route is used by her family to reach their rubber and durian plantations, which lie adjacent to the disputed property. The disagreement had been simmering for some time. According to Ms. Yupawan, tensions had previously escalated when members of the opposing family were seen walking around their property armed with rifles. She also claimed her husband had been wrongly accused of dumping chicken remains near the neighbours’ house and stealing a mortar. Mr. Natthawut Wirot, 32, a cousin of the deceased and a relative of the accused, said the two families had agreed to meet to discuss the land boundaries and a water pipe installation. The meeting was held in the presence of the local village headwoman, but when negotiations broke down, violence erupted. Police are continuing their investigation to determine the full circumstances of the incident and to pursue legal proceedings against those responsible. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-06-04 -

Politics Thai PM snubs World Court in border spat with Cambodia
FILE - In this photo released by the Thai Royal Thai Army, Cambodian Chief of Army Mao Sophan, left, meets with Thailand Chief of Army Gen. Pana Claewplodtook, right, at a border checkpoint in Surin province, Thailand, May 29, 2025. (Thai Royal Thai Army via AP, file) Thailand's Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has firmly declared the nation's refusal to bow to the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) amidst an ongoing border dispute with Cambodia. Speaking on 5th June, she reiterated Thailand’s commitment to peaceful resolutions over the contested areas, which include three ancient temples. This decisive stance follows Cambodian PM Hun Manet's suggestion to elevate the row to the ICJ, excluding these from the upcoming Joint Border Committee talks. Shinawatra took to social media after a spirited discussion on the border tensions with Foreign Minister Maris Sangiampongsa. The dialogue comes hot on the heels of a clash in the Chong Bok area in Ubon Ratchathani on 28th May, highlighting the urgency of the situation. Defence boss Phumtham Wechayachai is boots on the ground, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the stakes and options available to both neighbours. Thailand stands its ground firmly, insisting on bilateral dialogue while refusing to entertain ICJ meddling. Since 1960, Bangkok has kept such international involvement at bay, underscoring a long-standing policy of handling disputes locally. Former defence strategies and prime ministerial prowess anchor Thailand’s preference to keep the peace talks in-house, preserving the courteous camaraderie shared by their citizens. At the heart of the contention are three historic sites – Prasat Ta Muen Thom, Prasat Ta Muen Tot, and Prasat Ta Khwai – alongside the Mombei area, located at the crux of a century-old cross-border saga. Both nations vie for cultural and territorial claims in a diplomatic dance steeped in complex history. Ultimately, the Thai government emphasises maintaining “good neighbourliness” through agreed mechanisms rather than straying into unfamiliar legal waters. Neighbourhood harmony remains the beating drum guiding Bangkok's approach, committed to a future forged by cooperative dialogue, firmly keeping foreign adjudicators at an arm’s length.
