Panya Kraibuddikul, known as 'Noom Nakhon Pathom,' a prominent Buddha amulet trader and one of nine famous dealers, claims his assault case has stalled. He was attacked by two men wearing hand wraps who burst into a restaurant in the Chai Phraya area while he was meeting to settle a debt dispute with 'Madame Kaeng.' The incident occurred on January 14, 2025, when the two assailants struck him severely in the VIP room, leaving him with a fractured head, torn facial wounds, and internal bleeding. Restaurant staff intervened, allowing the attackers to escape on a motorcycle. Despite the incident, the case has reportedly made no progress, leading Kraibuddikul to suspect foul play. Deputy Police Colonel Supchai Srisak, commander of the Nonthaburi Province Police, revealed that authorities have reviewed CCTV footage showing the two men deliberately planning the attack, using hand wraps to conceal their intentions before targeting the victim. Police have now called additional witnesses for questioning and are preparing arrest warrants.
