Bangkok University has expelled two students following a violent incident where they poured hot soup on a fellow student in Pathum Thani. The attack occurred at a noodle shop, causing burns to the victim's neck, back, and arms. Reports indicate that the attackers also demanded money from the victim to prevent further harassment.
The university made the decision public on Facebook, emphasizing that the assault violated both the law and university conduct guidelines. The involved students, aged 19 and 22, were charged with assault and extortion and have faced multiple complaints related to their behavior before this incident.
In response to the attack, hundreds of LGBTQ+ advocates held a rally near the university, demanding accountability and justice. This incident has sparked a conversation about safety and respect within university communities.
