Lite Beer Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 1 Killed In Fight Between Rival Monk Food Sellers By Khaosod English. KANCHANABURI: -- Fight between rival vendors who sell food for monks has left one woman dead. Police responded to emergency calls at around 07.00 today and arrived to investigate the crime scene at Phasuk market in Kanchanaburi province. At the scene, police found one handgun, one empty bullet case, and shattered flower pots on pool of blood, while the victim who had been shot was already transported to hospital. The victim, Ms. Boonchoo Kittisakthaworn 56, was reportedly shot in her head. She died at hospital. The police later located the suspected perpetrator, Mr. Warawut Somchit, 60, who was admitted to hospital for his head injury.Pol.Col. Pongsakorn Uppapong, a police commander in Kanchaburi's Mueang district, said both Ms. Boonchoo and Mr. Warawut were vendors selling food items which would be purchased by Buddhists and donated to local monks, per Buddhist tradition.The pair sold their products close to each other and their proximity often led to arguments and confrontation, Pol.Col. Pongsakorn said, adding that Ms. Boonchoo and Mr. Warawut have previously pressed charges to the police, accusing each other of intimidating their opponent with firearms.The confrontation escalated this morning when Mr. Warawut brought out a handgun to threaten Ms. Boonchoo, Pol.Col. Pongsakorn said, and the victim decided to struggle for the gun, causing Mr. Warawut to fall onto flower pots and injured his head. The gun was later discharged by accident, according to Mr. Warawut, hitting Ms. Boochoo at her head.A monk was also standing nearby to wait for food alms when the shooting occurred, the officer added.

Popular Post djjamie Posted March 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2014 This incident typifies that some gullible folk in the population tend to follow the moral standings of the people in power. When people in power denounce the rule of law and decide that they will only respect it when it suits them then some of the populous will follow suit. The govt set the example…The people follow. Contempt breed contempt. Crime breeds crime. If the govt can announce to the nation that they won't respect the rule of law then the tentacles of cancerous impunity will reach far and wide. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done djjamie, you've excelled yourself. Even by your increasingly shrill postings this one is a doosie. Two people fighting over providing monk food and you manage to blame it on the government.

Popular Post Costas2008 Posted March 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2014 Ms. Boonchoo and Mr. Warawut have previously pressed charges to the police, accusing each other of intimidating their opponent with firearms. And the police ignored it as usual. Nothing to do with us, let them play with guns. They even arrived at the scene after the woman was taken to hospital. Now they are investigating......what? A bunch of w&&&&rs. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the fact he neglected to mention Yingluck visited Kanchanburi on the 19th May 2012 makes an award very unlikely, lacking in imaginative creative skills and research 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhizBang Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Good grief. A murder by two sellers of food for monks. Is this Thainess at work? Is this Thai Buddhism at work? Can Thais sink any lower? Don't answer that, tomorrow's headline will probably succeed in doing so. The total lack of respect for the law as shown by politicians, demonstrators and especially this government, is a serious cancer eating this country alive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anybody recently suggested you may be suffering a similar change regarding your psycological set up? Edited March 26, 2014 by 473geo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted March 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2014 What I do find unbelievable is the total lack of respect shown for the lady that died. Whatever the reason for her death she still deserves a little respect,as do her family and friends. May she rest in peace. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
