Pol Lt-Colonel Prasert Songsaeng, the deputy chief of Muang Trang Police Station, said on Wednesday that Kwansiri Jongkraijak, a nurse at Trang Hospital, pleaded guilty after she was charged in the court. The court initially sentenced her to two years in jail and fined her Bt15,000 but the jail term was suspended on grounds that she pleaded guilty and she had no criminal record. She said the men also cut her arm with a cutter, punched her stomach and hit her head twice with a helmet. But her post, that showed her arm with multiple shallow slashes, prompted some Facebook users to wonder whether they were self-inflicted. Prasert said forensic officers took traces of fingerprints around the car and did not detect any third person’s fingerprints, apart from the nurse.
