Regarding the issue involving two young women, Koi Aratchaporn and Natty Nantanat, who were accused by someone claiming to be a fellow alum from Chulalongkorn University's Communication Arts faculty, class 48, posting on social media that they were secretly assaulted and asking them to clarify the facts. Recently, reporters met Violette, one of Koi and Natty's close friends, at the premiere of the film “Term 4” at Paragon Cineplex, 5th floor, Siam Paragon. The reporters asked her about this issue.
May I ask about the person who came forward to expose the group, claiming they were assaulted?
"Oh, Violette knows about it. How should I respond? Let's put it this way: the person is a friend from the faculty during early university days. I'll just send my support. As for whether I was assaulted, I was not. But what they said about my friends is definitely not true."
Is your friend stressed?
"Violette doesn't think she is stressed about making such statements, but rather we are more concerned for her. So we just send her encouragement."
She continues to spread claims of being assaulted. How will you handle that?
"I don't feel like it needs to be taken too seriously. Many friends have sent support and are worried."
You personally are not stressed about this, right?
"Not stressed."
Has this been discussed within your group?
"Yes, we have talked among ourselves. Everyone has been affected, but we feel like we are moving past it."
Has she tried to contact you?
"I think we should not talk about this anymore. I just feel that... Is it sensitive? Yes, probably. Many people have probably looked into it and have many questions, which may come up again. I can't answer much, but basically, it's not true. We are not stressed, but we do send her support."
