BANGKOK: -- Police have arrested 3 polytechnic students in connection with the murder of an 18-year old vocational student from a rival college in western Bangkok.

On 28 August, Mr. Ekkhaphop Aumbutr, who was enrolled at Kanchanaphisek Technical College Mahanakorn, was assaulted by a group of students from another college at a bus top in Ladkrabang Area. Police said he died of knife wounds.

His friends were also injured from the brawl and cooperated with the police investigation to identify the culprits.

3 students, who are currently in their 3rd year at Polytechnic Institution in Bang Chak Area, were arrested by the police.

The three suspects confessed they attacked Mr. Ekkhaphop with knives to his death, but argued that the victims assaulted them first.

Out of control and an endless BS it is, some very strict punishments should be intrduced to avoid these ongoing incidents.

They have to do something with their time, no need to study to pass the exams, everyone passes anyway or just pay. Amazing these morons are the future of Thailand....god help us all.

So much for closing down schools..

Geez, can't they get these idiots to play football, or basketball or something to burn off this competitive weirdness? Isn't this what halfway normal students are supposed to do? All of this pack violence isn't just wrong, it's freaking stupid. They make the 'waen boy' motorcycle racers look like award winning model citizens.

Don't forget that this is a devout Buddhist country, where people don't show temper and remain calm always !!! Farang teachers must attend Thal Culture courses to learn how to behave properly !!!

Of course they omit to give the lecture and training so that we can stab, shoot, lie, cheat, and murder people.

Yes, but that would involve studying to get those scores. Edited September 1, 2013 by Bluespunk
