BANGKOK: The father of the teenage gunman who went on a shooting rampage at Bangkok's Siam Paragon Mall, apologised to the mother of one of the victims who was killed in Tuesday’s tragedy.
Clad in a black shirt, the man dropped to his knees and wept, seeking forgiveness when he met the mother of the 31-year-old Myanmar national at Wat Phasuk Maneechak in Pak Kret District, Nonthaburi on Saturday.“It is not the father’s fault but rather your son’s,” she said, reported news portal, Khaosod Online.
Meanwhile, the man also offered the victim’s mother money. She, however rejected it saying that no amount of money could make up for her loss.The heart-wrenching event unfolded on Tuesday when a 14-year-old assailant, using a modified blank-firing pistol, discharged live rounds within the confines of Siam Paragon Mall. This act resulted in the loss of lives, including a Chinese and a Myanmar national, with five others sustaining injuries.
“We greatly regret also the damage and impact to the country as a whole,” the father said in a letter.
