CCTV footage has captured the moment a British mother was knocked out with a single punch by a security guard she confronted for sleeping on the job.
Jane Cox, 37, from Eastbourne, approached the dozing guard at 3.30am at the Modern Home Tower apartment block in Bangkok, Thailand. The video shows Ms. Cox filming the guard as she wakes him up and scolds him for snoozing instead of keeping an eye on the building’s safety, as reported by the Mail Online.
An argument ensued between the two, and the guard, identified as Mohammad Ayan, 27, can be seen walking around from behind the desk and following Ms. Cox outside. The situation escalated into a physical altercation as Ms. Cox pushed the guard and he retaliated with a punch to her face, causing her to fall to the ground.
The incident took place in December 2021, but an arrest warrant was issued for Mr. Ayan in September of last year. Ms. Cox, a mother of one and schoolteacher, has spoken out about the alleged assault, calling for justice against the guard who left her with a black eye, bruised jaw, and fractured cheekbone.
Ms. Cox’s husband has enlisted lawyers to help with their case against Mr. Ayan, emphasizing the need for further action against the guard who has since left his job. The family is seeking accountability from both the employer and Mr. Ayan for the attack.
The CRSJ Foundation has announced plans to pursue legal action in response to the incident, highlighting the need for justice in this disturbing situation.
