Phuket police send 2 youths to court in attempted murder case, 11 others under 17

Phuket police on May 6 moved against the so-called “Villain Gang,” taking two youths to court on attempted murder charges and identifying 11 other suspects aged under 17. The case marks the breakup of a juvenile group that had drawn police scrutiny in Phuket.

Parents of 11 minors also face legal action

Police said the other 11 suspects are all younger than 17, placing their cases under juvenile procedures rather than the adult criminal process used for the two youths sent to court.

Authorities also said the parents of those 11 minors are set to face charges. Police did not disclose further case details in the source material, including the ages of the two youths taken to court or the circumstances of the attempted murder allegation.
