According to the Hong Kong media South China Morning Post, Anon Rottong (65), known as Thailand's 'Durian Chaebol', recently posted such an article on social media to heat the Internet.
He publicly declared that he would pay 30,000 baht (about 1.3 million won) to someone who hits his married son's mistress in his teens or older.
Rotton, who runs a large warehouse and durian orchard in southern Thailand's Champon region, is a father of three sons and a daughter.
His anger began when his second son Tsai abandoned his wife and children, who had been together for years, and became involved with his mistress 'On'.
On originally worked as an accountant at Rotton's company and then dated his grandson, and later approached Tsai and formed a relationship.
Rotton also added that his son threatened his wife to leave the house voluntarily, pointing a gun at her.
In response, he wrote on Facebook, `If anyone hits my son's mistress as a teenager or more, I will pay 30,000 baht. I'll pay the police fine, too. It is valid until the son has cut off his relationship with her." He stressed that the post was intended to protect his daughter-in-law and to bring about justice.
However, under Thai criminal law, simple assault (slapping, punching, kicking, etc.) can be up to two years in prison, a fine of 40,000 baht, or both.
Rotton said he would take responsibility if his post violated the law, and later put 1 million baht (about 44 million won) of cash on the table in media interviews.
The post received attention not only from Thailand but also from overseas.
Netizens should be "disgraceful if you don't give a penny to your son, your mistress will leave naturally" give a back reaction.
Eventually, Rotten deleted the post due to criticism of promoting violence and dissuasion from those around him.
In the meantime, "Many respected people advised me not to solve the problem with violence. I withdraw in order not to set a bad example.'
Instead, he announced that he would cut ties with his son and transfer all the assets registered in his name to his granddaughter.
