Thailand video news | Six injured in fair shooting, Aussie slapped with 32,000 baht bill

A former Thai boy band member was discovered dead in the Chao Phraya River near Rama VII Bridge, along with 20kg of concrete and a backpack. His body showed no external injuries, and his mother stated he had no history of depression, having prepared to join the Buddhist monkhood. An autopsy is being conducted to determine the cause of death and if the concrete was related to foul play.

In Nakhon Ratchasima, six people were injured when an armed group attacked fairgoers, allegedly after attempting to steal a motorcycle and being challenged by its owner and an event organizer. One suspect was captured, while police continue searching for others. An Air Force sergeant in Lop Buri confessed to drugging and secretly filming three of his partners, two of whom have reported their intimate images being circulated online without consent.

The sergeant admitted to the act and has apologized, with two victims planning to pursue legal action. An Australian tourist spent 13 hours at a bar in Thailand and received a 32,000-baht bill, raising questions about whether the price was fair or a scam. The Thai government has rejected claims that it used its military alliance with the United States to negotiate tariffs, stating that trade and defense are separate matters.
