A Bangkok man is seeking justice after he was allegedly stabbed by a taxi driver for complaining about getting rejected.

Facebook user Bee Anuchit posted photos of his severe wounds after he was allegedly attacked by a cabbie outside Wonder World Fun Park on Kanchanaphisek road on Sunday night.

Anuchit said he had attended a Cat Radio concert with two friends at the park before he tried to hail a taxi for their group. Anuchit got in the car and asked the taxi to drive up the road to pick up his friends waiting for him, but the taxi driver rejected his request.

“I got in the taxi and told him my destination. It all started when I said my friends were waiting about 5-10 meters ahead, but then the driver said he didn’t want to go. So I said ‘If you’re going to turn on the available sign but not accept passengers, you shouldn’t be a taxi driver’,” Anuchit wrote.

Suddenly, Anuchit felt the driver punch him. The pain was unbearable, he said.

“He punched me, but back then I didn’t know he had a knife in his hand. I felt winded. I opened the door, trying to get out of the car but he started driving away with me still clinging on to the seat. Then I saw my arm bleeding all over, and I couldn’t remember anything because I lost a lot of blood.”

Anuchit has filed a police complaint and has also encouraged netizens to share his photos in order to bring attention to his attack, including with celebrity news anchor Sorayuth Suthassanachinda.

“Please post and share this to Sorayuth. I will throw this scumbag taxi driver to jail.”
