Evening news, hot topic - Drama: 2-year-old child grabs the handrail decorated with Christmas lights inside a famous shopping mall in Samut Sakhon Province, but gets electrocuted and has to go to the ICU for treatment. However, the mall manager called to blame the child, saying that it was his fault for grabbing it himself, and threatened to sue for damages. The Facebook page "E-sao Khee Laek" posted pictures of the scene of the electric shock inside the shopping mall, as well as pictures of the child who was electrocuted and had to go to the hospital. The story was a warning to parents that a young child went to a famous shopping mall in Samut Sakhon Province. The child went to grab the handrail and got electrocuted by the decorated lights, but the mall manager said that the lights were fine, and blamed the child for grabbing it himself, and said that he would sue for damaging the mall's property. The mall will cover the medical expenses, with no compensation, and asked the parents to sign a statement that they would not press charges. Many people on social media have criticized the situation. Most recently, today (December 25), the family of the child who was electrocuted met with the mall's management to negotiate a resolution. Ms. Boonthicha Onkok, the mother of the injured child, said that at the time of the incident, her 2-year-and-6-month-old daughter went to do some errands with her grandfather at the bank in the shopping mall and grabbed the handrail on the 2nd floor of the mall where Christmas lights were installed, causing her daughter to get an electric shock. There were no signs warning of electric shock in the vicinity. At the time of the incident, the bank’s cleaning lady saw what happened and told her grandfather. After the incident, she took her daughter to the hospital. The doctor said that her daughter had an irregular heartbeat, so she was admitted to the ICU. She also had a swollen hand. After the incident, someone from the mall called to say that they had hired a supplier to install the lights. Since the incident, no supplier has called or taken care of her daughter. When the family took her daughter out of the hospital, the mall called to ask to be their representative to deliver the gift basket. However, the female manager who called her spoke rudely, saying that the lights were fine, but her daughter went and grabbed them herself. She also threatened that if she pressed charges against the electricity company, the supplier would press charges against her, saying that her daughter had damaged her property. After initial negotiations between the mall and the injured party, a good conclusion was reached. And both parties are satisfied. The victim's side made 3 proposals: 1. Request that the child have their heart system examined by a specialist again to confirm that they are safe and for the family's peace of mind. 2. Let the manager who spoke badly and made the family feel bad and spoke in a threatening manner come and apologize, which the manager has already apologized. 3. Regarding the compensation, both parties have agreed on the compensation to compensate for the feelings and damages that have occurred, and both parties are satisfied. After this, the victim or the uncle who posted the matter on social media will post to correct the information and update the information that has occurred. Meanwhile, the Central Mahachai shopping mall's Facebook page posted a clarification stating that they are very sorry and have not ignored the incident that occurred, which was an accident that occurred beyond control. The center has taken full care of the customer. The staff rushed him to the nearest hospital immediately and have been closely and continuously monitoring the symptoms. From the doctor's detailed diagnosis, it was found that the child had slight swelling and redness at the tip of the finger. The overall symptoms were normal and there were no long-term effects. The ICU stay was a measure to monitor the symptoms for 1 night and for close care 24 hours a day, without any abnormal symptoms, which was confirmed by the medical certificate. The shopping mall apologizes again for the incident that occurred. And thank you to everyone who has always trusted the shopping center.
