Leena Jung says fish-sauce attack was politically motivated

Yesterday at 4pm, Leena Jungjanja, aka “Leena Jung,” was left in a fishy state after a man threw fermented fish sauce, or Plara, at her face in her cosmetics shop – Hi-So Leena – on the second floor of the Indra Square shopping mall in Ratchathewi district.

Leena told police that she was alone in the shop when a dark-skinned man, aged 35-to-50 and wearing a black tank top, walked in to attack her, threw another bag of Plara at the entrance door, and fled the scene.

Leena – a former gubernatorial candidate and owner of HotTV satellite channel – talked about the situation in her show, saying that the attack was politically motivated.

“There must be a bad politician who hired the man to attack me,” Leena insisted.

Leena said that in the past few days, she had exposed the alleged fraud of some gubernatorial candidates, a factor that she believes led to the attack. She filed a police report at 9:30pm on the same day, after hosting her show.
