An Indian man, 41-year-old Sahil Ram Thadani, was arrested in Bangkok after he created a ruckus, threatening people at Siam Square while hurling abuses at them. The incident, as the Bangkok Post reported, took place on Monday at 4 pm in front of the Novotel Bangkok in Siam Square soi 6, Pathum Wan district. The video of the unexplained outburst of the man went viral, drawing flak for Indians on social media. Thadani was taken to Pathum Wan police station, where he was charged with threatening behaviour and causing a public disturbance. Police said his behaviour was believed to be a result of hallucinations from ingesting cannabis, Bangkok Post reported.
Who is Sahil Ram Thadani?
Thadani was the director of three firms in India but all his companies have ceased operations. As the video went viral, Indians and their conduct abroad came under scrutiny with people slamming Indians and their entitlements that they continue to exert at foreign countries.”These are the regular activities of the fraudulent Gujjus; they either commit various frauds in India or engage in different criminal acts abroad. The name of this Gujju criminal is Sahil Ram Thadani,” one comment read.”This is Sahil Ram Thadani, an Indian tourist. He went to Bangkok & consumed cann@bis there. He then came on road & started threatning people showing his lighter as a gun. Likes of him are ruining India’s already ruined image in the world,” another wrote. Authorities are investigating how long he has been staying in Bangkok and whether he got involved in any other kind of crime or similar nuisance incidents in past.
