A 30-year-old woman, Ms. M., has filed a complaint against a hotel fitness center in Udon Thani province after an incident on April 25, 2025. After finishing her sauna session, she was standing at the reception area in just a towel with wet hair, preparing to shower, when a housekeeper brought in a male maintenance worker to repair the sauna room. The worker stared directly at her without looking away before entering the sauna room. Ms. M. quickly dressed and left the hotel to calm herself, never having experienced such a situation before.

When she requested a meeting with the female manager to seek an apology and accountability, she was instead met with poor treatment and emotional outbursts. The manager was unwilling to have the staff apologize or promise the incident wouldn't happen again. After Ms. M. posted about the incident on Facebook, the fitness center owner contacted her via chat, but soon after, the manager cancelled her membership without accepting responsibility.

Ms. M. stated she spent a sleepless night feeling anxious and stressed. She reported the incident to police, but was confronted with hostility and questions about her right to take photos on the property. She has now filed a legal claim seeking six-figure compensation for emotional distress. The hotel's Facebook page later posted an apology, stating "We sincerely apologize for what occurred. This was an error that should never have happened. We understand our customer felt unsafe. We have reviewed and improved our operational procedures and instructed our staff accordingly to prevent such incidents in the future."

Police received a report on April 25, 2569 of a seven-year-old boy found drowned in a forest pond in Ban Jan Subdistrict, Ban Dung District, Udon Thani Province. The child had gone missing on the evening of April 23, approximately 2 kilometers from his home. When discovered, the boy was found lying on his back with one pair of shoes placed nearby. His mother lost consciousness upon hearing the news and was taken to the hospital by relatives. Police transported the body for detailed autopsy to determine the true cause of death.

According to rescue workers from Srisutho Association, the boy disappeared on the evening of April 23.

Rescue officials noted that drowning victims typically lie face down and have water in their lungs, but this boy had no water in his stomach or lungs—only air escaping from the rectum. Authorities are awaiting the autopsy results to determine the actual cause of death.
