Your post made me think, when was the last time we read about a Thai being arrested and charged for assaulting a farang on Phuket????????

Mmmmm ... how abut the Tuk Tuk driver who broke the arm of the old french guy trying to park his hired car in the Kata Municipal car park just next to the Tesibaan offices. This was last year. I could think of more but that one just sprung to my mind.

// edit it was 2 years ago ...

Umm ,are you saying the last farang to be assaulted by a Thai, on Phuket, and the Thai was arrested and charged for it was 2 years ago???? smile.pngsmile.pngsmile.pngsmile.pngSomehow, I doubt that. smile.png

If you can think of more cases, give me your most recent 2 cases, within 2 years, and I will not post anymore on the topic.

“He arrived on Phi Phi with his girlfriend [also from Finland] about a week ago, and the incident happened on his first night on the island,” Lt Wissawa said.

Brilliant. Have a nice stay...

The other way around and it's just a misunderstanding with no arrests!

Stupid and pointless comment. Just shows how little you know about Thailand. People like you need to get a life.

Really? Well, I know a pious, pretentious, holier-than-thou post when I see one.

Latest news was that the tuk tuk driver was released on bail and that "Assault charges against him will be filed with the Phuket Criminal Court soon".

It's not impossible (some would say very likely) that the driver never spent a minute in a cell, was never charged for anything and is still driving a karon tuk tuk today...

Now that I think about it, I find myself wondering quite often "what will happen to this guy" when I read the numerous articles about criminals released on bail (for petty crimes such as serial rapes, assault, attempt murder, murder, fraud, etc...). But unfortunatly, the thaivisa official but crappy newsource, and the little bit less crappy other newsource that cannot be named for ridiculous reasons, do not seem to do any follow up on their articles, so I am left to wonder if anything at all happens eventually.
