BURIRAM — For spreading rumors a woman was possessed by a ghost, two residents in the northeast accused of libel Monday.
For years, rumors that Buriram resident Phan Saengsawang was possessed by a pop brought the 52-year-old woman years of hatred and even physical abuse from superstitious neighbors, her daughter alleges in a criminal complaint.
“Lately I learned that my mother was accused of being a phi pop and she was often assaulted,” said Nattanida Saengsawang, who said she only recently learned of her mother’s predicament.
