A woman’s leg had to be partially amputated after it became trapped in a moving walkway at an international airport in Bangkok, officials said.
Supannee Kittirattana, 57, was on her way to the southern city of Nakhon Si Thammarat when her left leg became caught in the walkway around 8:27 a.m. Thursday , said Karant Thanakuljeerapat, director of Don Mueang International Airport.
“We would like to assure all passengers using Don Mueang airport that we will investigate and check and improve our measures so that we provide safe and efficient services,” he said at a news conference.Airports of Thailand, the state-owned company that operates airports across the country, said in a statement that all of the moving walkways at Don Mueang had been shut down temporarily and that it had ordered checks on walkways and escalators at all airports.
He said the family had requested CCTV footage from the airport but would leave it to the airport to conduct an investigation, “which the family hopes to be fair and just.” Another passenger had complained of a similar incident in a different part of Don Mueang airport in July 2019. Dhanapat Koomsalud said he was stepping off a moving walkway when one of his shoes got stuck.
