PHUKET:-- An Indian tourist was injured after a friendly banter with bouncers turned into an argument on Bangla Road on Saturday night.

The tourist, named by police as Rauka Ayush, was punched in the face at least three times and was taken to Patong Hospital before police arrived at the scene.

“We called the bouncers, Sarawut Samroengkit, 23, and Wanchalerm Oattaisong, 24, to the station to meet with Mr Ayush and discuss what happened,” Capt Yingyong Chuoykij of Patong Police told the Phuket Gazette.

Differing opinions as to what is classed as friendly banter !

Thais are getting braves only 2 Thai to 1 indian

Quote

All three men were charged with assault and fined 1,000 baht each.

 Thumbs up the BiB!

I think maybe 'old school bar fight' meant they were wearing hats ?

I want to know how much the hospital bill was and who paid.

Given the timidity of the local media, I guess we'll never know at which establishment on Bangla Road this happened.

They were all charged with assault so I think it is safe to assume that they all paid their own hospital charges.

They met behind the bike sheds and everyone gathered round chanting " fight fight " !!

I know by  experience, that Indian people can be arrogant <deleted>, and a real pain in the neck. That the reason I've  got rid of all Indian clients at my shop. So I believe the Thai bouncers.

Fists and feet only.

 

Modern school fights involve knives and guns.

In the case of the bouncers(who are described in other country's as crowd control engineers ) i would consider them untrained,brutal,not adept at controlling a situation,Bouncing as a part time job,and unable to keep their fists to themselves when they see a good opportunity to use them.Therefore i would call this a cowboy and indian situation!

The other 20 Thai's had never seen an Indian guy fight before, so they were too scared to jump in.

'Mano a mano'  Spanish for 'hand to hand'.  No guns, knives, clubs or brass knuckles.  Bare knuckles.

It's simple plain English. I think it means you fight like an English gentleman, no broken glass bottles, no knives, just use your fists. And when you see blood you stop.
