Mrs Chuan went inside the house to put the ‘Sator’ in the refrigerator. Jakkapan followed her into the house and attempted to rape her. Mrs Chuan fought him off but Jakkapan used a kitchen knife and cut her on the left breast. Finally, Mrs Chuan alleges that Jakkapan raped her.”
“After Mrs Chuan reported to us, she was taken for examination at Vachira Phuket Hospital,” says police.
