Norwegian expat recalls horrific knife attack by foreigner in Hua Hin

[Alwyn]

HL should read,

Neo Nazi taunts Muslim and gets himself stabbed.

why?

[IAMHERE]

Was the Egyptian guys passport held after paying bail. If not, he will be well gone from Thailand.

Well if he does leave the country his 200,000 will probably be forfeited.

many would say: don't joke araound with arabs/muslims?

Something tells me there is more to this story that is being withheld.

Like what?

There was an argument and the scumbag thought it was ok to stab him, IN THE BACK! The spineless w@#$*r

Any chance you could explain this please?

[mick01827]

Although this Norwegian guy probably wasnt at fault it seems that virtually every farang that gets bashed or stabbed in bar towns has tattoos.

You get the impression that people with tattoos draw attention to themselves.

You walk through Kaosarn rd in BKK and young middle class type farangs are covered in grotesque looking tatts...........why?

In the seventies in Australia if you had tatoos on your arms and legs you were immediately labelled a criminal. maybe times have changed but i certainly wont be getting one.

Why did they give him bail? He's going to stick around and face an almost certain jail term?

Baht rules in this country.

What a ridiculous post!!

I am somewhat surprised that the Egyptian didn't just hit the guy with his shoes...no joke. What happened to his culture here? OK to attack me now (with your shoes) but that is the way things were done in that culture when I was there. (I won't mention drinking alcohol which is 'haram'-forbidden).

Obviously an Egyptian in a bar isn't adhering to his culture, hence the booze and knife instead of tea and shoe.

You do realise not all Egyptian people are muslim? Obviously you don't but can prattle on about their culture.

No he doesn't and yes, he can (and does).

Just like at least half the posters on this Forum, who never tire of making ignorant, uninformed, racist, islamophobic and violent comments, pushing the world towards global war just as surely as ISIS does, and not realizing in the least how similar they are, in essence, to those barbarians.

On the news today in Calais , egyptian refugees attacking two journalists with knives.

There is a gang of them in the camp cusing problems with knife attacks.

So what is going to happen to this world when they would not have a clue who the refugees are or their affiliation , likely IS recruits spreading from Syria/middle east around the world.

Ive come to have a view that people who have tattoos are risk takers, the type of people who would try heroin or do bungee jumps and other stupid things most of us would not do. Most sensible people do not have tattoos. As someone said we don't know the full story, but whatever it was, the Egyptian used a knife to perform a cowardly attack from behind. Its not just the Thais who we have to watch out for in Thailand plenty of non Thai cowards, cowmen, and other assorted <deleted> about. So choose your friends carefully, very carefully.

Except we don't burn people alive or run over people who are tied up with tanks. You and other people like you are the problem not the solution. It is you and your ilk that has flooded western Europe with people who do not share our values or beliefs.

With very limited concern by RTP following receipt of the 200K (considered as fine), would definitely appear to be a cheap extortion for attempted murder and get out of jail tea money. Obviously thats all he had easy access too. Both were farang (matters not where from), 'no loss' only RTP gain $ mai-pen-rai

Forfeit $6,000 or risk a decade in a Thai prison.

Decisions, decisions...

[ghworker2010]

I hope the norw' will tell his story in the 'general' section of this website when he has recovered. Did he know the perp by name? Did he arrange a lawyer or did the police put his name at immigration exit points?

[dieseldave1951]

i hope the RTP remembered to this backing scums passport

"He remained in police custody until Tuesday before being released after meeting the 200,000 Baht bail."

200.000 THB bail brought the guy out of custody. Wow. This should not be possible.

Get well soon, Mr. Rossbach!

[dieseldave1951]

i try again

I hope the RTP remembered to take this back stabbing scums passport

"He remained in police custody until Tuesday before being released after meeting the 200,000 Baht bail."

200.000 THB bail brought the guy out of custody. Wow. This should not be possible.

Get well soon, Mr. Rossbach!

The bottom line is no matter what happened at a bar or what insults and verbal abuse was made, the man who pulled out a knife to inflict grievous injury/death is the one to blame

Not to mention stabbing a man in the back as he tries to walk away from the fight.

That's how cowards always attack, reminds me of the muslim brotherhood in Egypt, terror and killing innocent tourist on vacation in Egypt just a couple of weeks ago.

[jerojero]

Stabbing a guy in the back. Cowardly as well as obvious criminal. Throw the book at him!
