Security guards attack British tourists, Khao San Rd.(VIDEO)

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Security guards attack British tourists, Khao San Rd.(VIDEO)

Thai’s Attack British Tourists and Then Deny Everything


On August 17 a video clip went viral that showed a British man being viciously attacked by a group of Thai men, supposedly security guards, on Khao San Road, Bangkok.

The clip was filmed and uploaded by a Thai man, who later said that one of the security guards told him he ‘was provoked into the attack.’
There were many witnesses to the violence but the person who filmed the scene quickly removed the clip for fear of ‘having problems in the future with the suspects.’

Too late though as we already have it.

The images, once again, raise questions about Thai people and their attitude towards foreign guests to their country. The level of violence used here is clearly unnecessary and reveals a deep-seated hatred of some people towards their guests.

Pol Lt Pathipan Yeunthon of the Chanasongkram Police Station said that he was informed of the incident at 1am.

He said there were four British men, one of them was brutally beaten. The victim and his friends said that they just wanted to go into one of the bars but the ‘bouncers’ refused them entry and attacked them. They don’t know why.

Eventually the police did arrest two men, but only after the clip went public. They are both security guards on Khao San Road who are supposed to be responsible for public safety...

Thais really do have anger management issues.
These violence street videos are only the tip of the iceberg.
The market sellers refusing a sell at an earlier announced price for some bullshit reason like you did a stroll to find a better bargain or just a more suitable product but didn'tn is way more common and a clear giveaway as well.

I love Thailand but in the past few years I always felt compelled to leave after 10 days or so since I can feel my mounting "no BS taking from them attitude" might put me into dangerous situations.

Well if you call, 2 on to one guy already on the floor, one hitting him with a baton and the other repeatedly kicking him in the head best fighting then the rules are very wrong! More like fighting same retarded animals. It's lucky that bloke in white shorts came to rescue his mate or they would have probably killed him!
Have seen the same in UK though!

I have been to Thailand many times,And I have never had a problem.
Most guys I see get beaten are trying to leave bars without paying.

The barang guys in this incident were more then likely drunk and should of said nothing when refused entry.
