webfact 86147 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Jealous Thai husband sets fire to his wife on Sukhumvit Soi 22 Picture: Daily News BANGKOK: -- A jealous Thai husband poured thinner on his wife and set fire to her as she sat beside him in the passenger seat of a car in Sukhumvit Soi 22 yesterday. The bizarre incident happened in broad daylight after 42 year old Somboon Phondee went to pick up his wife Sophitta after her shift at the Marriot Marquis hotel. Witnesses said a jealous argument broke out between the pair on the hotel steps. After the rowing couple seemed to calm they drove off in a Toyota Corolla, reports Daily News. But further down the road locals were shocked when flames started shooting out of the front passenger compartment. Somboon, who was driving, is believed to have doused his wife in thinner and set fire to her. He was seen to jump out on fire himself and the flames engulfing him were extinguished by passersby and he was "arrested" by concerned citizens. Meanwhile his wife was on fire in the passenger seat. A good Samaritan got a fire extinguisher and managed to save her. She crawled out of the car and slumped to the tarmac. Both were taken to hospital with multiple burns. Police found the car smoldering with a completely destroyed iPhone burnt out on one of the seats and a cigarette lighter in the compartment. There was also an opened beer bottle and an opened beer can in the car. Police are studying CCTV and interviewing witnesses to the drama before deciding what charges to lay in the case.

noitom 8152 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Thai deliberate charges. It's too obvious to all else that it's attempted murder, but Thais need to deliberate. Thais love to deliberate and put off doing the right thing. Link to post Share on other sites

colinneil 78671 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 If he already had the thinners with him it was a premeditated attack. He should be jailed for a long time if it is true. Evil plain evil to do such a thing. Link to post Share on other sites

Whether this particular individual has the money or not is not the point I am making . The thrust of my comment that seems to escape you is that so often victims families get paid out to satisfy the perpetrators and get them off the hook; that is if they have the money. If they don't have the money then they get what's coming. I repeat for your benefit and thhMan....Thai justice has a monetary value. Link to post Share on other sites

williamgeorgeallen 4181 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 i am anti death penalty but i believe in 'do unto others as they do unto you'. there fore she should be allowed to light him up. something needs to be done to stop these crimes of passion. on the contrary in thailand passion seems to be used as an excuse for these crimes.

Caveat Emptor 1500 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 We all enjoy a good laugh and some stories just lend themselves to it but this isn't one of them. The lady was set on fire and we are yet to find it if it was planned or just rage but either way it's not in the least bit funny. Link to post Share on other sites
Lex Talionis 635 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Read an article like this one and you just know with a deadly predictability what kind of responses you're going to get. A bunch of inflated egotesticle asses braying about such imbecilities as "no wonder Thai women preferred farangs." (The overwhelming majority of Thai women marry Thai men and are just fine thank you.) Then comes the ignorant extrapolation of one Thai male's behavior to the entire Thai male population, including asinine observations about the "Thai male ego." In spite of the fact that this "white man's burden" bullshit went extinct at least a century ago. And some of these ramblings come from senior members of this forum. Jesus <deleted> Christ man, you think by now you would have headed back home if that's the way you feel. But then again maybe you're stuck here. Either in a dead end job that you hate or married into a family you now despise. Time to grow a pair, head back to Blighty or wherever tf it is you hail from. Pathetic. Simply pathetic.
