Forks of fury: Woman seeks justice after nightspot stabbing drama
A Thai woman is seeking justice after being accused by a group of nearly 10 women of pouring water over them before they attacked and stabbed her in the back with a fork at a nightclub in the southern province of Songkhla.
The 24 year old victim, Tar, brought the matter to Channel 7 after the police failed to update her complaint. The incident occurred around 10pm on January 4 at a nightclub near Chalathat Beach in Songkhla.
Tar told the media that she had visited the entertainment venue with her friends, arriving around 10pm. The assault took place shortly afterwards.
Tar explained that one of the women, whose table was near hers, approached her and accused her of pouring water over their table. Tar insisted on her innocence, suggesting that the woman had the wrong person.
Tar attempted to clarify the misunderstanding but the woman and her friends refused to listen. They proceeded to attack her in a group until security guards intervened.
However, instead of taking action against the attackers, the guards ejected Tar from the venue and failed to offer her any assistance, even though she was left with wounds and bruises.
The attack continued outside the nightclub, where the group followed Tar and assaulted her further.
According to Tar, she sustained a serious wound to her forehead, a torn left ear, and injuries to her head from having her hair pulled. She later discovered that she had also been stabbed in the back with a fork.
Tar reported the brutal assault to Mueang Songkhla Police Station but none of the attackers have been summoned for questioning or faced legal consequences.
Channel 7 reported that all the women involved in the group were unemployed. They reportedly frequent several nightclubs in the area and are known for assaulting other patrons.
Some bars have allegedly banned them due to the damage they cause to furniture and utensils during their rampages.
As of now, officers at Mueang Songkhla Police Station have remained silent and have not provided any updates on the case.
