SURAT THANI: A mentally disturbed pig farmer threatened to hold himself and his baby daughter from a flagpole if the police did not comply together with his demands to be locked up in a prison cell for 18 months. It was later realized that the crazed man was desperate to discover a retreat from his long-term lovers. The incident occurred just earlier than 8 pm on June 16 in front of the Baan Nasarn Police Station, where police were making ready to hoist the flag as part of their every day morning ritual. The deranged man, identified as 43-year-old Preecha Golaga, put his one-year-old child daughter “Nok” in a headlock, placed a nylon rope around her neck and threatened to hang her – after which himself – if police did not lock him up for 18 months. He specified Nakhon Sri Thammarat Provincial Prison as his penal facility of selection. After a 30-minute standoff, police negotiators have been capable of calm him down, together with his daughter struggling no more than slight abrasions on her neck. K. Preecha had come to the prison earlier claiming that “someone was out to get him”. Suspecting that the man might have been pushed to his bizarre conduct by illicit drugs, police contacted his first spouse, or mia, Wantana Golaga. Hidden advised them that the person had no historical past of drug abuse. “In fact, he is a pig farmer – and a wealthy one, too,” she advised them. Hearing this, the police determined to not arrest Preecha and instead opted to send him for an examination at Suan Saranrom, the local psychological hospital. He later advised the officers that each one he actually needed was an prolonged vacation from his two mia, who had apparently pushed him crazy. Once at Suan Saranrom, Preecha brought on one more commotion when he again took his daughter hostage and demanded to be incarcerated. It was not reported why a man in his condition was allowed access to a toddler that he had already injured. The medical employees there have been ultimately in a position to calm him down, and at last report were still monitoring his his situation. It was not reported if Preecha ever obtained his wish of being sent to Nakhon Sri Thammarat P
