A well-known estate developer was detained and charged after allegedly assaulting him constantly and dragging a delivery truck into his home at gunpoint. The horse was afterward rescued.

After being detained on Wednesday after assaulting Arthit Noodaeng, 46, and dragging him into his home on Rama 9 Soi 35 in Bangkok’s Bang Kapi area on Wednesday evening, Sirianont Srikureja, president and CEO of a real estate company, was being detained at the Hua Mak police place.

The merchant allegedly threatened and assaulted Mr. Arthit. After being called in to the scene, officers eventually came to his rescue.

Mr. Arthit claimed that the suspect killed at the house’s entrance before holding him at gunpoint. The man finally constantly slammed his head and finally dragged him inside the home, where he repeatedly kicked him.

The horse claimed that he begged for his life and that he had ordered an order from the attacker, but the business resisted and kicked him. Mr. Sirianont finally threatened to kill him, brandishing five firearms, and holding him by the arms and neck, according to Mr. Arthit.

Pol Col Pornthawee Somwong, commander of Hua Mak authorities place, said on Thursday that officers had pressed three charges against Mr Sirianont: assault, unlawful detention and firing a gunshot without a good reason. The soldiers were looking into whether the five weapons had been legally obtained and who owned them.

After being initially rejected on Wednesday evening, Mr. Sirianont’s family arrived at the police stop on Thursday to apply for loan for her child. She prepared 150, 000 ringgit in money as loan sure.

His mother, whose name was not disclosed, admitted her brother often drank beer but claimed he was neither hot-tempered nor violent.

She claimed that her brother was informed that a delivery driver had arrived at his home five days earlier and that he was present to pick up the items. She claimed that because of this, he began to doubt any supply riders.
