A Bangkok court sentenced 'Sorn' to a 15-day suspended jail term, a 5,000 baht fine, probation, and community service for riding a jet ski through floodwaters on a major road, confiscating the vehicle.
The widely shared video of the stunt, filmed by 'Prao', drew public criticism despite the men claiming they acted out of ignorance and intended to bring smiles during widespread flooding in Bangkok.

Today 18:23Key points summarised by AI
Artists successfully restored a mural in Bangkok's Charoen Krung area after it was vandalized on September 27, returning the artwork to its original state.
The restored mural is part of the 'Krung Thep Creative Streets' project, a collaborative initiative featuring 15 murals by international artists across Bangkok.
Three teens were arrested for the vandalism, admitting they defaced the mural after mistaking it for a rival group's territory; the Bangkok Governor urged citizens to report future incidents, highlighting severe penalties and city-wide CCTV.
