Thread: Briton Matt Prior Brutally Attacked Outside Bangkok Nightclub

A Pyrrhic victory for the farang beckons.

CCTV goes a long way in proving guilt or innocents, attack happened allegedly on the street.
Insurance company is who pays, not the boiler house or night club, they are not going to pay out for false witnesses etc to cover up for an insurance claim.

The medical costs are not that big by insurance standards, if the CCTV shows the attack and the bouncer is to blame, they will pay.

Chances are he was a gobby little twat mouthing off to the wrong guy pushed the right buttons and bingo!
Not to say that what the bouncer did was right but bad things happen if you let your mouth run off at the wrong guy.

James, the club already accepted liability and sacked the bouncer. That they may wish to wriggle out of the financial compensation that flows from that is entirely another matter. Plus, any insurance liability is mitigated, if not entirely invalidated, by the insured " or his agents, servants etc" acting unlawfully in giving rise to a claim.

Assaulting a member of the public in such a disproportionate and violent manner outside the premises is clearly a criminal act in anyone's book and therefore no insurance company would consider their contract to be binding unless said contract contained a clause indemnifying such an act.

I have never been attacked, threatened nor asked to leave a place during my more then 25 years here.

Have to be cvnts I reckon (in most cases) and probably deserve what they receive.

CORRECT

So says the man who was too frightened to leave his moo baan.

The irony is delicious.

He'll be hired on quick somewhere else. A one punch knock-out is a badge of honor with those guys.
