Another Foreigner Beaten Unconcious

In what continues to be a frequent occurence, yet another foreigner appears

to have gotten into trouble with the locals and ends up at the hospital unconcious.

It's getting hard to explain all of these away as bad behavior under drink. The

medical bills alone for all this specialist care must be absolutely horrific.

Foreigner beaten unconscious in Soi Beokeow.

In the early hours of Wednesday Morning, Police Captain Witayaya from

Pattaya Police Station made his way to the Pattaya Memorial Hospital to

investigate the aftermath of an assault on a foreigner which took place in

Soi Beokeow. The foreign man, who was carrying no forms of identification

was picked-up by Sawang Boriboon Rescue Workers and was in an unconscious

state. He had sustained a head injury and cuts to his mouth, consistent with an

assault. Two Thai men were known to have assaulted the unknown foreigner,

however further details regarding the attack were not forthcoming. He was later

transferred to Chonburi Hospital for more specialist care.

If he turns out to be English then no doubt he got what he deserved and should be deported by being chained to a baht bus and dragged by the feet to the airport. :o

But..... if he was a fine upstanding chap from any where else in the world then I'm sure you'll all agree that the BIB should arrange a firing squad and shoot all Brit's to stop this type of mistaken identity attack happening again. :D

So now the news photographers can barge in to the A&E area and take pix without any permission?

Where will all this stop? No privacy, no consideration.

This is really gutter journalism.

These two would have celebrated with the cops down at the local bar and provided lots of amusement for the locals. This is getting out of hand . How can we stop this type of thing happening so frequently? Do we need to set up vigilanty groups (bassball bats and full mask helmets etc.)?

Is this the same incident already mentioned in another thread (a couple of topics down from this one) ?

English Man Badly Beaten In Soi Beokeow

(BTW- the Pattaya City News links (here and on their site) go to the story about the Koh Larn moto accident, not to this incident).

No that was last month, and he got battered with rocks.

This guy doesn't look too damaged, and we all know what the Thai's can do when they want to hurt someone. Maybe more comotose through alcohol than unconscious?

Yes I know we need more details before jumping to conclusions.

At first glance, it wouldn't appear to be, the man in the first article is wearing blue shorts while this man is wearing jeans.

Maybe that's it. Whenever anyone gets beaten up on Soi Beukhaew they get taken to Memorial, maybe they are sending out hitsquads on quiet evenings to boost trade!

BTW when I showed this to the missus she said that the guy looked a bit like me (although you can't really see him properly). For anyone who knows me it wasn't - you will have to try harder next time :o

As the British chap said to the Argentinian (during a footie match in Croatia back in 92/93): "Sorry Mate, I missed you (but my aim is improving)"

I'm at a loss to explain it myself. There's a lot of people in town at the moment,

mostly Russian tourists by the sound of the language but they seem to be happy

enough people and they also usually bring their own dates. People everywhere.

There do appear to be strange happenings in soi buakaow. Ordinarily, walking

through there you don't feel a hint of danger. But these people keep ending up

at hospital and Yes, the news crew is always there with the cameras aren't they?

I think it might be that Soi Bukakki has lost so many long staying impecunious visa runners, who used to keep the place afloat, that new business practices are being employed up there to (a) vent frustrations and (:o make money with Memorial Hospital backhanders. Or not.

It also depends how pissed you are and at what time you are staggering around the soi I suspect.

This is really gutter journalism.

Hardly surprising for a town that is a gutter. Not exactly lifestyles of the rich and famous in soi buakaow. :o

There is nothing wrong with Soi Buakhaow and nothing wrong with Pattaya.

Unfortunately violent crime does occur; it is hardly surprising, considering, that in the early hours drunken farang pick fights with anyone catching their gaze.

I've never had a problem, and neither will anyone with half a brain.
