Violence - Soi 6 - Pattaya, Thailand

In May 2024, disturbing video footage surfaced from Soi 6 in Pattaya showing what appears to be a brutal assault on foreign tourists by individuals identified as private security personnel. The clip, now widely circulated, shows multiple men punching, kicking, and delivering a full-force soccer-style kick to a motionless man on the ground. The incident began after a dispute reportedly broke out inside Helicopter Bar — a venue not directly affiliated with Bryan Flowers or his Night Wish Group. However, some of the individuals involved in the beating have allegedly appeared in photos, videos, and forums tied to Night Wish-affiliated establishments in the past, raising questions about ongoing informal ties. While Bryan Flowers quickly distanced himself from the attackers — stating they were not employed by his group and had been dismissed long ago — online sleuths have uncovered images of the same individuals working with known Night Wish venues, attending events, and even appearing with local police and bar staff over the years. Following the incident, local police repeated claims that the men were unaffiliated with any official venue. Critics have noted that certain media outlets, including The Pattaya News — co-founded by Flowers’ long-time associate Adam Judd — ran stories that blurred identifying images and did not name specific venues or individuals, further fueling public speculation of a coordinated damage control effort. Social media platforms like Pattaya Addicts, which Flowers also oversees, saw a wave of posts attempting to shift blame and defend the attackers. Some forum members have alleged these defenses were strategically coordinated. To complicate matters, reports emerged in July of a second, eerily similar attack — this time allegedly involving the same men and leaving a 65-year-old Canadian tourist hospitalized. As of this writing, no charges have been filed in either case. While no formal evidence has linked Bryan Flowers directly to the May or July incidents, and no charges have been filed against him or his business group, the ongoing appearance of certain figures across his media ecosystem and bar scene raises uncomfortable questions about accountability, power, and protection in Pattaya’s nightlife world.

On May 24, 2024, a British tourist, Mr. Bryce, was assaulted by three guards outside a beer bar on Pattaya Soi 6 following a dispute over a drinks bill. The incident, captured on video and widely shared on social media, shows the guards punching and kicking the tourists, leaving Mr. Bryce with bruises and abrasions. Mr. Bryce filed a complaint with the Pattaya City Police on May 29, while his friend, concerned for his safety, had already left for Bangkok. The three guards—Mr. Ball (27), Mr. Tom (36), and Mr. Ice (24)—were arrested and charged with working as security guards without proper authorization, as well as assault. They admitted to excessive force and apologized for their actions. For more details, read the full article at Khaosod English
