Sounds bloody horrific.

Can't really ascertain much from the report, but RIP to those who died and I expect this might be one of those "lesser reported" incidents.

Damn…..RIP, what a vicious way to meet your end. So when the Thai neighbours play music all night and run backyard mechanics shops, farang cannot say anything as the Thai might “lose face”, but when farang plays cards and has music on in the wee hours……..same same, not same?

I kind of agree but it is unlikely that a Brit would go around and murder the Thai playing loud music or remonstrate with the guy causing the issue..  I just wouldn't do anything to piss off a local resident of the community when in Thailand.

Regardless the guy did not deserve the end he had and I hope the right guy is charged and sentenced accordingly.
