A 52-year-old woman has sought assistance from the Pavena Foundation after an intruder allegedly broke into her home and attempted to assault her.

On October 21, 2026, a 52-year-old woman, accompanied by her daughter, filed a formal complaint with the Pavena Foundation for Children and Women in Pathum Thani. According to reports from Khaosod Online, the victim alleges that an intruder broke into her home in Samut Prakan during the early hours of October 18, 2026, and attempted to sexually assault her while she was sleeping.

The victim stated that she awoke during the incident and fought back, using the light from her iPad to illuminate the intruder's face. She claims to have recognized the perpetrator as a former neighbor. Startled, the suspect reportedly fled the scene in haste, accidentally putting on the victim's shorts instead of his own and leaving behind his boxer shorts as physical evidence. The victim has provided these items to the authorities to assist in the investigation.

For residents and visitors, this incident highlights the importance of home security measures, particularly in residential areas. While the victim has identified the suspect, the case remains under active investigation by local police. It is important to note that the suspect has not yet been apprehended or charged, and the details provided are based on the victim's testimony to the foundation. Authorities are currently working to locate the individual to proceed with legal action.
