Kamnan Assistant's Gang Brutally Beats Villager at Temple Fair
A kamnan's assistant led a gang of over ten people in a brutal attack on a villager and his girlfriend at a temple fair in Chai Nat province. The villager suffered severe injuries requiring nine stitches, while his girlfriend was also assaulted when she tried to intervene. Police have accepted a complaint and pledged to prosecute the attackers, who are reportedly also kamnan's assistants.
A violent brawl erupted at a temple fair in Sapphaya district, Chai Nat province, leaving two people seriously injured and several others hurt. The incident occurred late at night at Wat Intharam (Wat Taluk) during a ramwong dance event, where chairs were thrown and bottles used as weapons.
Reporters visited Kittipong, 34, a local villager who was injured. He had bruises all over his body, a leg injury, a wound under his right eye requiring nine stitches, a bruised nose, and a swollen head. Kittipong said he had brought his girlfriend and family to enjoy the fair. When a dispute broke out among some acquaintances, he merely stepped in to tell them to go home, fearing danger. Suddenly, a kamnan's assistant grabbed him by the collar and punched him, even though they did not know each other. Kittipong tried to defend himself but was overwhelmed by a gang of more than ten who attacked with fists, knees, elbows, and feet until his face was covered in blood and he collapsed. His girlfriend, who tried to stop the assault, was also attacked, suffering a split lip and multiple injuries. A complaint has been lodged at Sapphaya Police Station, which vowed to pursue the case to the fullest extent.
Chamnan, a kamnan's assistant and mother of the injured young man, said she was shocked after seeing the video clip. She never expected her son to be targeted so brutally and questioned who the attackers were. She noted that her daughter-in-law, who tried to intervene, was not spared either. Her son is now severely injured and unable to work, which breaks her heart. She expressed bewilderment that, as a kamnan's assistant herself, the people who mobbed her son were also kamnan's assistants.
