webfact Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Cops Reject Gun-Brandishing Soldier’s Plea For Forgiveness By Teeranai Charuvastra, Staff Reporter Still image of the encounter in which Air Force Master Sgt. Phoptrai Naksuwan admits he pulled a gun on rock legend Pongsit 'Pu' Khampee at a nightclub in Amnat Charoen province. AMNAT CHAROEN — Police said Monday they would not drop legal proceedings against an air force officer who pulled a gun on a rock star as he performed on stage last week. Air Force Master Sgt. Phoptrai Naksuwan will be tried by the military court, even though the singer accepted his plea for forgiveness and withdrew his own firearms complaint against the air force officer. Phoptrai made headlines last week after he brandished a handgun and pointed it at Pongsit “Pu” Khampee as the musician performed on stage at a nightclub in Amnat Charoen province.
