The victim was left unable to walk after the incident.Bang-on denied any wrongdoing, claiming she was at the scene but had no part in the attack.

Puwanart said both had confessed and faced assault charges.Torsak said Saifon told police that the four suspects connected to the case had surrendered to police in 2009 and the Samut Prakan Juvenile and Family Court had ordered them to each pay compensation of between Bt20,000 and Bt30,000 to the victim and had let them off with a warning as they were first-time offenders.

Popular Post bkkgooner Posted September 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2014 Everyone should read this article and understand why you should avoid confrontation with students in this country. They crippled some poor girl for the rest of her life and none of them spent a single day in jail for it but instead paid a tiny amount of compensation each Juvenile and family courts in this country are an absolute and utter joke 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tokay Posted September 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2014 Gasp. If they actually start closing old cases, that is going to be a game changer for Thai criminals. I hope they do. Clean this place up. Then if they can make the internet stay on when it rains... it will be as close to paradise as one can get while located between Laos, Myanmar, and Cambodia. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what the backgrounds of all concerned are, connections etc. ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bluespunk Posted September 7, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2014 Victim must have been from a hi-so family. Only Thais can carry a grudge for 12 years "Carry a grudge?" The victim was left unable to walk. They are seeking justice for this vicious assault, nothing to do with social status or "a grudge" and everything to do with those responsible for the assault facing the consequences of their actions. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubl Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Victim must have been from a hi-so family. Only Thais can carry a grudge for 12 years Logic, logic, what is logic? I can only assume that you do not want to suggest a relation between being HiSo, Thai and carrying a grudge. If there is some HiSo involved it might be more on the side of the wrongdoers, this being Thailand and so. No further details in the OP though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upset Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I really cannot understand thai media, thais and now even foreigners using the tern HiSos.....these so called HiSos are actaully dogs who se families mostly made the monies in the past thru illicit means, corruption etc. Stop patronising these dogs by calling them hisos pleeze. There are no Hisos in thailand only rich crooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuddy Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 This truly is an amazing country. The injured party has been trying to get justice for 12 years. Finally,probably due more to the coup and the transfer of senior police officers it is being undertaken. Yep there could have been some dosh passed around but I find it heartening that an old crime is being serviced. I hope all the other unsolved crimes get a similar look at. I cannot believe that all the detectives in the police force are bent. There must be guys in the police force who are keen to close an outstanding case legitimacy. (spelling).

BillyBobThai Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) Does Thailand have a statue of limitations for crimes like this? If so, I hope the time has not run out. All of these girls need to spend 5 to 10 in the big house. With all of the cases that I have been reading about, Thailand needs to build some new large prisons.

Baerboxer Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 As others have said, her spine was injured in the attack and she was left requiring a wheelchair, unable to walk. Picture of 27 year-old victim Saifon Manoi, Picture of 28 year-old Bang-on Saenglun, one of the attackers. She was 16/17 when she and a group of friends attacked and seriously assaulted a girl who was 14/15 at the time. The assault left the victim unable to walk and she has spent 12 years in a wheel chair. Life changing for one, no consequences for the other. Hope the attackers finally receive the appropriate punishment they deserve. Not the usual 15 years commuted to 48 hours community service suspended for 2 years nonsense. Still, you can illegally drive underage and cause the death of many, plough your car into a bus stop and kill many, or kill a cop while driving pissed and get away with it. Now, pick some wild mushrooms in a park and your away for 15 years, no messing. Justice - another joke in Thailand, that's really not so funny. Let's see if the system gets shaken up and reformed, or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
