CRIME FORMER MISS THAILAND'S SON CHARGED
Man rams car into bus passengers, killing one
POST REPORTERS
A son of a former Miss Thailand winner has been charged with murder and attempted murder after he ran over several bus passengers with his car, killing one and injuring a number of others, following a quarrel with the bus driver on Wednesday night. Kanpithak Patchimsawat, 20-year-old son of Sawinee Pakaranang and Kan-anek Patchimsawat, accused Sathaporn Arunsiri, 37, the driver of bus No 513, of hitting his car while in the Asoke area.
After a brief argument, both left the scene. When the bus stopped at a traffic light at Aree intersection near Sukhumvit Soi 26, Mr Kanpithak left the car to approach the bus driver. The driver then told passengers to leave the bus for another vehicle. Before they could be picked up, Mr Kanpithak got back into his car and rammed it into the waiting passengers. Three people were trapped under the car when it came to a stop.
Eyewitnesses and other passengers tried to lift the Mercedes to free the victims, who were taken to Chulalongkorn Hospital. One victim, Saichon Luangsaeng, 42, was pronounced dead at the hospital yesterday while two others are being treated for serious injuries.
The angry crowd then turned on Mr Kanpithak, assaulting him before police stepped in. He is being treated at Samitivej Hospital.
Pol Lt-Gen Adisorn Nonsi, the metropolitan police chief, said police would treat all sides fairly. Mr Kanpitak is the nephew of Ukrit Patchimsawat, retired deputy police chief.
Police are awaiting the results of an alcohol test and medical records of Mr Kanpithak, who was reportedly once treated at Galaya Rajanagarindra Institute and has a problem with self-control.
The family of Mrs Saichon yesterday filed a complaint with police. Her daughter Sucheera Insuwan, 25, said the family wanted Mr Kanpithak prosecuted. Mrs Saichon, a financial officer of the state-run bus agency, the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority, was among passengers waiting when the Mercedes hit her.
Mr Kan-anek, father of Mr Kanpithak, says he will take all responsibility for what happened.
The family agreed to pay compensation to the injured and the family of the dead victim.
At a press conference, Mr Kan-anek and Mrs Sawinee, who are divorced, expressed regret.
Mr Kanpithak had suffered from depression and his body would stiffen in a fit when enraged, his father said.
His son would be ordained to make merit for the dead victim

The father of a man who rammed his Mercedes into a crowd at a bus stop on Wednesday night, killing one person and injuring several others, has threatened to file charges against bystanders who allegedly physically attacked his son and his car. Kan-anek Patchimsawat, father of Mr Kanpithak, 20, said he could not allow ''mob rule to be above the rule of law''.
He went on television yesterday to try and defend his son, saying he was suffering from stress and was ''sick'' and unaware of what he was doing at the time. The bus passengers, he said, had no right to assault his son.
Mr Kanpithak drove his car into a crowd of people in an apparent rage after having an argument with a bus driver he had accused of hitting his Mercedes. Mr Kanpithak is the son of former Miss Thailand Sawinee Pakaranang and nephew of retired deputy police chief Ukrit Patchimsawat and comes from a very wealthy and influential family.
He has been charged with murder and attempted murder following Wednesday night's incident.
During a television interview yesterday morning, his father named Somjit Kaewkla, the bus conductor, as one of the attackers. He said he learned from his son that the woman damaged his car and tried to pull him from the vehicle.
Mr Kanpithak remained sitting in his car as people tried to free three people who were wedged under the large sedan.
Mr Kan-anek refuted Ms Somjit's statement to police that accused his son of faking illness after the incident, saying ''she lied.'' He also branded her an ''ill-educated'' person.
According to the young man's father, Mr Kanpithak, who is being treated at Samitivej Hospital, was suffering from stress, had bruises to his body and had had a ''brain haemorrhage''. He is also unable to move his arms and legs, Mr Kan-anek said.
He said his son was unaware of what he did and blamed ''illness'' as the cause. It was reported that Mr Kanpithak had previously received treatment at the Galaya Rajanagarindra Institute, a renowned psychiatric hospital.
The father claimed he rushed to hospital to calm his son down after he made a phone call saying he wanted to die.
He also dismissed speculation that his son would eventually walk free from the case because of his wealth.
''If he hadn't been treated at the [Galaya Rajanagarindra] institute, he would go to jail,'' he said, adding that the family was awaiting medical records from the doctor who treated him.
Mr Kan-anek said he was also waiting for a list of the dead and injured victims from the police and that he would offer compensation. Police said they would issue a warrant for the arrest of Mr Kanpithak if he did not show up for questioning within the next few days.
