Killer grandmother's bail rejected

Police presented the grandmother, who killed her 13-year-old grandson after an argument on July 13, at Phra Khanong Court Wednesday to apply for a detention order and objected to her bail pleas on grounds of being a flight risk and a case that needs maximum punishment.

The boy's mother Waraporn Khamsaen said she forgave her mother, adding that though she had initially thought of providing a bail guarantee for her mother, she now wanted her to serve time in prison. She said her mother had said she would take care of herself behind bars and return to the family once she was released.
