In the heart of Sisaket province, nestled within the peaceful Ban Phue Mai village, a family finds themselves caught in a whirlwind of anguish and turbulent emotions—a storm fueled by a decade-long nightmare that’s left them yearning for justice. Songpol, a 32-year-old resident, has turned family life into a perilous dance with danger, with his mother Thongsri at its epicenter. The narrative of despair unfolds anew with each passing day, as his volatile tempers and narcotic-fueled rages make regular unwelcome appearances.

On the morning of April 27, as the sun cast its warm glow over the gentle hills of Kantharalak district, a chilling event took place that illustrated Songpol’s brazen disregard for familial bonds. Armed with devious intent, he allegedly set an innocuous buffalo loose, luring his unsuspecting mother into harm’s way. Thongsri, a woman of 60 years, found herself leading the beast back to its pen when her son emerged, ominous on his motorcycle. In a flash, a tug—a vicious yank on her collar—sent Thongsri sprawling to the ground, where bruises and abrasions would soon bloom like a macabre bouquet upon her skin.

For Thongsri, each bruise is a testament to her son’s addiction—a fierce tempest of methamphetamine and alcohol that transforms love into loathing. Her voice quivers as she recounts instances of violence, colored with hate-fueled words hurled her way in the throes of his intoxication. This life steeped in fear is a far cry from peace, and each encounter sinks her deeper into sorrow’s embrace.

Standing beside her mother, Anuwon—the dutiful daughter—watches this unfolding tragedy with a heart heavy and bruised. Despite her diligent efforts, each trip to the community police seems an exercise in futility, mere words failing to transform into resolute action. Each report she files vanishes into a vault of bureaucratic indifference at the Kantharalak Police Station, hopes dashed in a sea of hollow promises.

“It’s like an endless loop,” Anuwon confesses, exasperation tinting her voice. Songpol isn’t selective—it’s not only their mother; if fidelity to indifference tempers justice, then fury seeks an audience, and Songpol obliges by spreading it wider. That their father is largely spared—by virtue of absence—offers little comfort when their beloved mother shoulders the brunt of his demons.

Anuwon’s own journey is marked by brief reprieves—the times she spent in Bangkok seem distant now, yet they are marred by the same cycle. Even when ink dried on arrest warrants for drug offenses, once upon a time, compassion drove Thongsri to bail him out, hoping against hope for a son redeemed. Yet little has changed. The current predicament, meticulously orchestrated by an unrepentant Songpol with the buffalo as his unwitting accomplice, underscores the gravity of the situation.

As Anuwon pleads for just recourse, her resolve is as steely as it is desperate. She beseeches the police, echoing her calls through KhaoSod’s megaphone of empathy, to uphold their duty and shatter this cycle of violence. Her focus remains unwavering, an unblinking eye alight with concern for her mother’s well-being.

Their plea, though personal, is shrouded in echoes familiar to many—a collective cry for justice rising from the fields and forests of Sisaket, reaching for ears that will listen, hearts that will act. For now, as suspense looms heavy in the air, the family remains ensnared in this poignant narrative—seeking a dawn where justice finally breaks the night.

As the village sighs in wait, and the news ripples across Thailand, the calls for action grow louder, heralding an unwavering truth: the enduring hope that the light of accountability will one day shine through the shadow of inaction.
