Suwicha Thakor’s life after sentencing
‘Please help me! I’ve no one to turn to,’ Thitima Thakor panicked over the phone in the morning of May 12.
‘What’s happened?’
‘Five days ago, Nui (Suwicha’s nickname) was transferred to Zone 7. The other inmates forced him to be tattooed. There are 37 people in his cell. Nui was scared. He didn’t yield.
