Female doctor attacked by Swiss man in Thailand
A female doctor in Thailand was assaulted by a Swiss man, reportedly the owner of an elephant sanctuary with alleged police connections, after sitting on the staircase of his beachfront villa in Phuket. The doctor and her colleague had dinner at a restaurant and relaxed on the beach, thinking it was public. They encountered the man, who verbally and physically attacked them. Despite police urging not to file a complaint, the doctor decided to press charges at Thalang Police Station.
