Lawyer Claims Threats Amidst Police Shooting Dispute

The video begins by recalling a recent high-profile case where a Border Patrol Police officer shot a motorcycle taxi driver. Initial CCTV footage showed the driver initiating physical contact.

Public opinion is divided, with some justifying the officer's actions due to the driver's aggression, while others condemn the use of a firearm over a fare dispute.

Prominent figures, including lawyer Decha and former police official Pol. Gen. Rewat Klinkesorn, have offered their views on the case.

Lawyer Decha claims he posted a video alleging that individuals have been sent to threaten and surveil his office following his public disagreement with Pol. Gen. Rewat.

Decha states he has prepared for potential threats, informed relevant authorities, and is gathering evidence, emphasizing that intimidation is unacceptable.

Lawyer Decha appeared at the Bangkok South Criminal Court as counsel for a client and spoke further with reporters about the case.

Decha reiterates his disagreement with Rewat's earlier comments, particularly Rewat's perceived support for using a gun and his advice for the victim's wife to remain silent.

Decha claims Rewat, in a subsequent live stream, used derogatory language towards him and alleged that Rewat sent people to his office, causing him fear.

Decha expresses concern for his safety, referencing Rewat's past record of neutralizing hundreds of criminals and fearing he might be a target.

Decha questions why such situations arise in society and criticizes Rewat's inability to accept criticism despite advocating for democracy.

Pol. Gen. Rewat Klinkesorn addresses the allegations, denying sending anyone to threaten Decha and suggesting Decha review CCTV footage to verify claims.

Rewat explains that comments about 'people's path, dog's path' were made by fans on his live stream and not directed at Decha.

Rewat dismisses Decha's role, stating that legal matters are for the courts and Decha is merely a lawyer.

The segment speculates whether this situation might lead to a new rivalry between legal commentators.

Decha states he is ready to confront the issue, not physically, but through legal debate and discussion.

Rewat observes that Decha frequently comments on high-profile cases, suggesting the current issue might stem from other cases.

The discussion concludes that legal proceedings should be based on evidence.

The pillows are being sun-dried for disinfection, to reduce moisture and eliminate odors.

From a distance, the stacked pillows resembled sandbags, leading to the initial misinterpretation.

Residents are urged not to believe unverified information or news reports.

A comment suggests that drying pillows indoors near a window might be a more conventional method.

While some pillows protruded from the building, the distant view created the illusion of bunkers.

The clarification confirms the structures are part of normal hotel operations.
