Mot Dam Denies She's the Crude-Mouthed Host Involved in Child Abuse Scandal; Opens Photo of Who It Actually Is, Says She'd Resign If It Were Her

Radio personality Mot Dam publicly identified another host as the subject of a child abuse scandal, denying she is involved and stating the accused should resign immediately as the case is now legal matter.

7 May Khaosod

Mot Dam has firmly denied being the crude-mouthed radio host accused of child abuse, revealing the incident occurred 2-3 months ago. She opened a photo on air to show her co-hosts who the person actually is, noting that everyone would recognize them as they appear on screen constantly. She stated that if she were the one involved, she would have already been suspended, adding that if it were the other host, they should resign without needing anyone to order them to do so, as the matter is now a legal case.

The scandal centers on allegations that a crude-mouthed radio host has been bullying celebrities in the media, taking students on social outings, and threatening to use money to silence them—all while holding a senior position on the station's board. The victim's parents have refused to cooperate further. Mot Dam previously clarified on a television program that she is not involved, stating she doesn't have a taste for young people and has never run a talent or modeling agency for children. She emphasized this is being handled by her husband.

Mot Dam further elaborated on the situation during an appearance on another program, saying that whoever the guilty party is should resign immediately without being told, as this has now become a legal matter. She noted that this incident occurred 2-3 months ago and is not recent, with previous negotiations between parties having failed. During her broadcast, Mot Dam showed a photo identifying the actual person involved, assuring viewers that "everyone knows who this person is—they're on screen all the time."

Vincent Kompany Unhappy with Refereeing – Praises PSG's Strong Performance

Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany criticized refereeing decisions in both legs of the Champions League semi-final loss to PSG, though he acknowledged the defending champions' strong defensive display and their 6-5 aggregate victory.

7 May Khaosod

Vincent Kompany, Bayern Munich manager, expressed dissatisfaction with the referees' performance throughout both legs against Paris Saint-Germain from France, but praised the opposing team for playing exceptionally well. In the UEFA Champions League 2025-26 semi-final second leg on May 6, Bayern drew 1-1 at home against defending champion PSG. PSG's Ousmane Dembélé scored first in the third minute, and Bayern's Harry Kane equalized in the 90+4th minute. On aggregate, PSG won 6-5 to reach the final for the second consecutive year, where they will face England's Arsenal. The final will be played at Puskás Aréna in Budapest, Hungary on May 30. However, the match was marked by controversial refereeing decisions, particularly a handball by Nuno Mendes that many felt deserved a second yellow card, and a handball by Chiquinho Neves that appeared to be a clear penalty but went uncalled. Kompany stated: "While this is not an excuse for everything, it is important and ultimately the match was decided by just one goal. It seems there were several decisions that worked against us too much in both legs, and some moments were clearly ridiculous." The Belgian manager added: "I am not someone who dwells on disappointment. We will move forward. PSG defended their deep defensive line well throughout. They were alert and moved very dynamically. They could always cut off crucial moments in time."

Temple Fish Feeding Drama: Young Man Brings Own Feed by the Sack, Confronted by Aggressive Caretaker

A young man from Chachoengsao province sparked an online controversy after posting a video of being verbally abused by a temple caretaker when he attempted to donate fish feed at Pong Aakad Temple. Suphanat, 31, had brought his own sack of feed worth over 300 baht but was harshly treated when asking to borrow a feeding scoop. He is calling on temple authorities to improve management and oversight of the fish feeding station to ensure visitors can make merit donations peacefully.

6 May Khaosod

A contentious online dispute involving temple fish feeding has gone viral in Chachoengsao province after a social media user posted a one-minute video documenting an incident at Pong Aakad Temple in Bang Nam Phueo District. The user brought a sack of fish feed to make a merit donation with his family, but was treated with hostility and harsh language by the male caretaker managing the fish feeding station.

On May 6, 2569, a reporter visited the temple to investigate and found the male caretaker was not present. The automatic 10-baht coin donation box that appeared covered in the clip was found open, with some feeding equipment scattered about. However, the 20-baht merit donation box where the caretaker had been sitting remained in its original position.

When interviewed, the person who posted the video identified himself as Suphanat, 31 years old. He revealed that he and his family regularly bring fish feed to this temple each month as a personal merit-making practice, since he works in the Buddha amulet trading business. On the afternoon in question, he purchased his own sack of fish feed worth over 300 baht because he felt the limited feed sold at the temple might not be sufficient for the large number of fish in the pond.

Suphanat explained that he normally feeds the fish at a different location, but switched to this spot due to construction debris at his usual feeding point. He asked the caretaker politely to borrow a feeding scoop, but was refused in an unfriendly manner. Undeterred, he retrieved a plastic container from his car instead. However, when he and his family began feeding the fish, the caretaker verbally attacked them aggressively.

Feeling confronted, Suphanat recorded the caretaker's behavior on his phone. Upon realizing he was being filmed, the caretaker fell silent and claimed his harsh tone was due to fear that splashing water might flood the fish pen. Some online commenters have suggested the caretaker's fish feed may be independently operated rather than temple-sanctioned, potentially explaining his resistance to outside feed.

Suphanat emphasized that he did not intend to create conflict with the temple, but was provoked when the caretaker challenged him to report the incident to the abbot. He hopes that temple authorities or relevant organizations will establish better management and improve oversight of the fish feeding station, so that merit-makers can donate peacefully without experiencing such unpleasant encounters.

6 May Khaosod

A man was fatally shot after breaking into a contractor's home in Kumphawapi District, Udon Thani Province on May 6, 2569. The victim's family gathered at his residence to prepare for funeral rites that evening, with relatives and community members setting up tents and arranging food. When the body arrived at the home, the victim's sisters, Samran, 60, and Sangwan, 58, used an umbrella tied to the roof beam to cover the coffin—a traditional practice believed to prevent a cat from jumping over the coffin, which would allegedly disturb the spirit. The sisters lit incense and urged their brother's spirit to move on to a better realm and be reborn as siblings in the next life, asking him not to seek revenge on the shooter. According to the sisters, their brother was the youngest of five siblings, had no criminal history, and worked collecting scrap materials. The contractor allegedly shot him in self-defense after the victim attempted to break into his home multiple times.
