On May 12, 2025, a 55-year-old homeowner from Ban Phontong in Muang District, Chaiyaphum Province (name withheld upon request) approached media outlets with documents after receiving a property seizure notice from Chaiyaphum Provincial Enforcement Office dated May 8, 2025. He maintains that he has completely paid off his mortgage with Bank for Agriculture and Cooperatives' Chaiyaphum branch, with zero balance remaining.

The documents he presented include enforcement office notices from both 2024 and 2025, along with a payment receipt from the bank confirming that the outstanding debt of 418,140 baht has been paid in full.

According to the seizure notice, the enforcement officer has seized titled land and a residential house in Phontong Subdistrict, Muang District, valued at approximately 418,140 baht, with a dispute mediation hearing scheduled for June 4, 2025 at the Chaiyaphum Provincial Enforcement Office.

The homeowner explained that he mortgaged the property with the bank over 10 years ago, paying approximately 4,000 baht monthly until he faced payment difficulties during the COVID-19 pandemic. After mediation between the bank and enforcement office in 2024, he agreed to settle the outstanding balance within the specified period.

On May 8, 2024, he brought 418,140 baht plus all associated fees to pay off the loan at the bank and received documentation confirming zero debt. However, he recently received another seizure notice, causing him alarm and concern about losing his family home.

The homeowner stated he visited both the bank and enforcement office seeking clarification but received no clear explanation. He questioned the responsibility of the agencies involved, worried about potential damage to his credit bureau record, family reputation, and trustworthiness.

He is demanding that Bank for Agriculture and Cooperatives investigate the matter, correct the records promptly, and prevent similar incidents from affecting other citizens.

Pond Krit Da addressed the controversy over her comments to a contestant in True Academy Fantasia 2026 auditions, denying any intention to spark viral drama while admitting her word choice was inappropriate and accepting this as an important lesson. She explained at a press conference that she was unaware the footage would be used for promotion, and emphasized that neither the show nor her team sought to create controversy, as they don't believe that's a constructive working method. She also stated that behind the cameras, there were follow-up conversations and mutual encouragement with the contestant, whom she helped prepare for final auditions. Pond clarified that her role in the show was to oversee production and artist development, not social media management, and that she only learned about the viral clip a week after it spread online. She revealed that the contestant ultimately performed excellently in the final auditions, successfully channeling feedback into a strong performance, and remained happy and motivated afterward based on the positive impact of the guidance provided.

A hot-headed motorcycle rider involved in a traffic collision with a car escalated the dispute verbally before fatally stabbing the other party. Police are searching for the assailant to press charges. At 9 p.m. on May 11, 2025, Mueang Nonthaburi Police received reports of a vehicle collision followed by a stabbing that left the victim critically injured. The incident occurred at the entrance to the Forest Industry Organization (Forestry Department) on Rewadee Road, opposite Soi Rewadee 7 in Talat Khwan Subdistrict, Mueang District, Nonthaburi Province. Officers responded along with rescue volunteers and paramedics from Phra Nang Klao Hospital.

At the scene, police found 39-year-old Chaleam Kiarti lying on the road with labored breathing. He had sustained one stab wound beneath his left chest. His pulse stopped, but paramedics from Phra Nang Klao Hospital performed CPR for over 15 minutes before his heartbeat returned, and he was immediately transported to the hospital.

A 48-year-old eyewitness named Mr. O described what he saw: he arrived as the two parties were already arguing and rushed in to stop them, telling the motorcycle rider to leave it alone. The rider apparently complied, starting his motorcycle to depart. However, his chain fell off, and he spent time reattaching it before riding away. The witness then approached the injured man, who was being supported by others, and the victim told him he had been stabbed before collapsing. The assailant was described as a young man in his late 20s riding a small motorcycle similar to a taxi bike, dressed in a green rider's uniform.

Following the incident, investigators visited the scene and reviewed CCTV footage from cameras along the route before and after the attack to identify and locate the suspect for prosecution.

A sanitation worker was shocked to find the body of a male newborn, approximately six months into gestation, in a garbage bag in the Saphan Pla Charoen Krung 58 area. The worker panicked and fled before reporting the discovery, saying he had never encountered such a situation in all his years of work.

On May 11, 2569, Pol. Maj. Lertchai Phuealongchai from Yannawa Police Station received the report and immediately coordinated with the forensic unit, forensic doctors from Police Hospital, and rescue personnel from Ruam Katanyu Foundation to respond to the scene.

At the location, authorities found the newborn's body with placenta and umbilical cord inside a clear plastic garbage bag behind a green garbage truck bearing license plate 67-9755 Bangkok. The infant was confirmed to be male, approximately six months into gestation.

Truck driver Chaiyanrong Katisart, 50, recounted that while collecting garbage bags along Charoen Krung 58 Soi at a designated collection point, he and his colleagues were sorting through bags to retrieve plastic bottles when they discovered the infant. He initially thought it was a doll, but upon pulling it out, he saw the placenta and umbilical cord. Shocked and distressed, he and his colleague decided to flee and called police to report the incident. He expressed that in all his years working in this area, he had never encountered anything like this and felt deeply sympathetic to the situation.

Initially, Yannawa Police Station transferred the infant's remains to Ruam Katanyu Foundation rescue personnel, who then transported the body to Police Hospital's forensic unit for identification purposes. Authorities aim to locate the mother to proceed with legal proceedings.

Bride-to-be Namtarn Pijaksana has confessed that wedding planning is making her anxious, with preparations progressing at only 10%. Speaking at the premiere of the film "City Curse" at Major Ratchayothin cinema, the actress revealed she's pushing hard to complete arrangements this year, though she may postpone to early next year if needed, as she and her fiancé haven't yet consulted auspicious dates or officially set a wedding date.

Nametarn disclosed that she was shocked to learn that wedding planning requires booking venues, makeup artists, and organizers a year in advance. Many services are already fully booked, particularly auspicious dates which are limited to just a few days each month, adding to her stress.

For the ceremony, she initially planned an intimate, small family gathering with Northern Thai traditions. However, it's growing larger than expected as friends are excited about attending and experiencing the Northern Thai wedding customs. Some have already asked about booking tickets in advance.

Regarding the atmosphere, while her fiancé Phi Phai is quiet and simple, Namtarn admitted she's the fun-loving type who wants the celebration to be thoroughly enjoyable. From past weddings she's attended, she's been fully involved and stayed the longest, so she's now trying to balance simplicity with fun.

"I'm excited," she said. "Today we met so many friends who came to congratulate us, and everyone asks when and what day to mark on their calendars. Right now I have to tell everyone to be patient because we're still planning."

"We're trying to make it happen this year, or early next year at the latest, because neither Tal nor Phi Phai have consulted auspicious dates or set any specific dates yet. Everyone assumes that once an engagement happens, we'd immediately send invitations with the date, but we're nowhere near that stage."

"Another thing I learned is that getting married requires booking a year in advance, which shocked me. The best auspicious dates might already be fully booked since everyone books from the previous year. If we want it this year, we might have to settle for second-choice dates, just nothing bad."

Regarding convenient dates: "If the date is only convenient for us but not the parents, they won't accept it. The elders are quite serious about auspicious dates, so I try to adjust as much as possible. We'll have to wait for the parents and Phi Phai's family to discuss soon, which might give us more clarity. Right now I can't really say much. It's not a secret—everyone knows we've been together for a long time and we're already engaged—but we haven't discussed the details yet."

Will the wedding theme definitely be Northern Thai traditions? "Yes, we initially planned a small, warm family gathering in the North, but now it's starting to grow. Friends aren't even asking about the Bangkok venue anymore; they're all asking about the Northern event and wanting to book tickets. Everyone wants to see the Northern Thai traditions because they might not have many Northern friends, so they're curious about how Northerners do weddings, what ceremonies they have, whether they pour water on the bride's hands, whether they drink from cups. I tell them that's not quite how it works, but I'm still thinking about it."

"Right now, I'd say wedding preparation is at 10%. This 10% means just Tal and Phi Phai talking between ourselves, and me discussing with friends. The parents and the other side haven't had formal discussions yet," she concluded.

Liverpool has unveiled designs for a memorial statue to be installed at Anfield to honor the late striker Diogo Jota and his younger brother André Silva, who died in a car accident in July last year.

The memorial, titled 'Forever 20,' celebrates their lives, bonds, and the love and respect shown by family, teammates, and football fans worldwide.

At the center of the memorial is a flowing heart sculpture, commemorating Jota's iconic goal celebration. The design features the numbers 20 and 30 from multiple angles—the shirt numbers worn by the two brothers.

The memorial also features engravings of lyrics from a beloved song associated with Jota that Liverpool fans continue to sing during the 20th minute of every match. Fan tributes previously left at Anfield will be melted and incorporated into the memorial's base, alongside personal details reflecting Jota's life beyond football, including a game controller placed on the base.

The memorial will serve as a permanent symbol of love, unity, and remembrance—a space where everyone can reflect, remember, and pay their respects. Liverpool will announce the official unveiling date at a later time, though the statue is confirmed to be located on 97 Avenue at Anfield, the same memorial site where fans have laid flowers, jerseys, and tributes since Jota's passing.
