2 women, Thai workers, fight at Changi Airport food court, 1 jailed for 11 weeks
One of them was sentenced to jail, while the other's case is still pending.
Two Thai women working together at a food court inside Singapore's Changi Airport engaged in an altercation that resulted in one woman receiving medical treatment for injuries. Changsuwan Titirat, aged 35, pleaded guilty to voluntarily causing grievous hurt using a dangerous weapon and was sentenced to 11 weeks in jail. The confrontation occurred on May 2, 2025, at Singapore Food Street within Changi Airport Terminal 3's transit area.
The women had been working together for nearly a month when tensions rose and a fight ensued on May 2 at around 9:05 pm. Charoensuk Krittya, 53, pushed Changsuwan, causing her to fall onto a metal stool and fracture her left rib. They were separated briefly by another employee but resumed arguing shortly thereafter. During a second confrontation, Charoensuk threw a ladle at Changsuwan. In response, Changsuwan, who was preparing food using scissors, stabbed Charoensuk twice in the arm.
Charoensuk was taken to Changi General Hospital for treatment, sustaining a laceration to her left arm and was granted three days sick leave. The food court manager reported the incident to the police, leading to Changsuwan's arrest on the same day. She was released on bail the following day.
Charoensuk faces two charges: voluntarily causing grievous hurt and criminal intimidation, alleging she threatened to break Changsuwan's nose with the ladle. Her legal case is still pending.
