THAI.NEWS - Thailand Breaking News

In a twist of events that could rival any soap opera’s plot, a Thai man recently unleashed his fury on his friend’s wife’s alleged lover, wielding nothing more than a humble broomstick. The drama unfolded in the seemingly serene Samut Prakan province, painting an unexpected tale of retribution with its roots steeped in the old-as-time themes of love, loyalty, and perhaps a sprinkle of jealousy. The scene of this impromptu melee was an abandoned house on Soi Wat Dan Samrong 28, in the ever-bustling Mueang district. As the clock struck 1PM on July 2, officers from the diligent Samrong Nuea Police Station were called to the location. They found a 44-year-old man at the epicenter of the chaos, waiting quite nonchalantly to surrender, almost as if his broomstick vigilante act was a reasonable response to the situation at hand. The target of this bizarre broomstick justice was none other than…

In a jaw-dropping event that has left the residents of Chedi Mae Krua village in Chiang Mai’s San Sai district scrambling for cover, a 49-year-old man was spotted riding his motorbike stark naked, with three enormous dildos strapped to each side. The extraordinary sight unfolded on a rainy night, adding an extra layer of shock factor to an already risqué spectacle. The man, who hails from Lampang and was later revealed to be named Kluay, has since become the talk of the town and beyond, as the incident, documented by a bystander’s camera, swiftly made waves across social media. When local police caught wind of this quirky escapade, swift action ensued. By noon the following day, the intrepid officers led by Police Colonel Ekapong Chaiwongsai of the Mae Faek Police Station, had tracked Kluay down to his rented abode. A raid of his premises yielded not just the white Honda…

In the lively, sun-soaked streets of Pattaya, a curious incident unfolded on a typical July morning. At the tender hour of 7:30 AM, the local community witnessed an unexpected drama at the bustling intersection of Soi Bongkot and Soi Arunothai. A man was nabbed by watchful locals who foiled his escape plan with a creative, albeit unconvincing, act of deception. The man, suspected of motorcycle theft, attempted to outwit his captors by feigning drunkenness — an act that involved some elaborate staggering and slurred speech. However, his Oscar-worthy performance failed to sway the discerning locals, and the Pattaya City Police were swiftly called to the scene. Enter Police Colonel Anek Srathongyoo and his squad, ready to crack the case wide open. What they found upon arrival was a crowd gathered around the alleged thief, who appeared to be conducting an impromptu mimicry of a pub-goer after last call. Next to…

In a small corner of the Isaan province of Buriram, a tale of despair, redemption, and resilience unfolded. The peaceful setting of the Mueang Nuea Temple, shrouded in spiritual solace and serenity, was suddenly thrust into the limelight when a remarkable yet heart-wrenching event took place. A Thai teenage mother’s act of desperation led her to abandon her newborn at the temple’s doorsteps, only for her maternal heartstrings to pull her back in fear of legal consequences. The saga began when a 74-year-old monk, Sunthorn Chatthan, residing at the temple for more years than most can count, was stirred from his routine by the unusual clamor of the temple’s resident stray dogs. Curiosity piqued and with a monk’s calm deliberate steps, he ventured outside to unravel the mystery shrouded in barks. What he discovered was a newborn baby boy, underweight but safe, nestled on the wooden bed as if the…

A vision so grand it promised to whisk tourists into the glamorous world of 007 turned into a spectacle of folly. The 40-million-baht shrine to James Bond, the famed secret agent, stood tall in Phang Nga, only to crumple into obscurity a mere day after opening. Yes, you read it right—24 hours was all it took for the James Bond Museum, conceived to pay homage to the 1974 cinematic gem “The Man with the Golden Gun,” to morph from glamour to ruin. Today, it languishes as a testament to bureaucratic misadventure and squandered public funds. “This was never really a plan that made sense. Just a flashy idea that fizzled,” lamented People’s Party MP Phakamon Nunan during a cutting parliamentary evaluation this week. “We need accountability. We can’t just carelessly allocate millions to vanity projects and then simply walk away.” The Department of Tourism backed the ostentatious facility, nestled on…

Picture the bustling streets of Ratchada, where neon lights flicker and the buzz of the city never quite fades. Yet, amid this vibrant chaos, a rather shady tale of forgery and deception was unfolding—a tale that pulled back the curtain on a counterfeit operation with enough twists and turns to match a thriller novel. On July 2nd, the Metropolitan Police Bureau took center stage in a daring operation that laid bare an illicit business far removed from legal confines. What started as a surveillance mission in mid-June soon evolved into a fully-fledged operation, culminating in a spectacular raid on a car rental tent in Ratchada. Armed with a court warrant, number 515/2568, issued on June 30, police fanned out to four key locations in a synchronized sweep, orchestrated like a maestro conducting a symphony. Leading this gripping performance were none other than Police Lieutenant General Siam Boonsom and his equally…

In an exhilarating crackdown that reads like a scene from a thrilling detective novel, police in Buriram dismantled not one but two online gambling empires, capturing their cunning operators in a masterful swoop. It was just after breakfast on July 2 when Police Lieutenant General Trirong Phiwphat, the no-nonsense head of the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, gave the nod to unleash the cyber sleuths. The task force, under the formidable leadership of Police Major General Kritchat Bumrungattano, Police Colonel Tiwa Sophacharoen, and Police Colonel Klaikhet Burirak, descended like eagles on their prey—namely, the notorious jack22 and dakota99 gambling websites. Guided by the wisdom of Police General Kittirat Phanphet, who happens to be something of a Sherlock Holmes in this caper, they zeroed in on the financiers who brazenly operated these illicit online gambling dens from the comfort of their plush Buriram province hideouts. These virtual gambling palaces attracted hordes of…
