Pattaya Police and a unit of The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Foundation were called to attend a construction site after reports of a fight and serious injuries being sustained.
At the scene of a construction camp for Cambodian workers in Soi 7 near Wat Bunyakarn they found a worker Mr. Jan aged 30 who had sustained deep slash wounds to his left arm and was bleeding profusely. Medics on scene administered first aid and then rushed the man to Banglamung Hospital.
The police also found a Mr. Somchai aged 26 weilding a bloody cleaver that he had used to severely injure his fellow co-worker. From their investigations they found out that Mr. Jan and Mr. Somchai were close friends that is up to this night when Mr. Somchai returned home to find Mr. Jan raping his wife. Mr. Somchai in a rage picked up a meat cleaver and attacked his friend.
Ms Hai, the wife of the attacker was in shock but was able to give a statement to the police. She said that this was not the first time that Mr. Jan had raped her. He would often come to the room in a drunken state to rape her but she was in fear for her life as he had warned her not to tell anyone of his assaults.
The police will need to talk to Mr Jan when he is in a fit state to give an interview to hear his side of the story.
