Well, this bit of news f_cking bites!
I used to go there on my last visit to BKK and I had a great time to just sit and chill.
I wonder if TAT will use this to promote the tourist to come and visit, maybe a "better be quick or we'll buldoze the entertainment areas" promo. 
For the guys that organised this:

I don't have any inside intel, but let me wax socratic here and ask a few questions
1. Who is landlord of the real estate at "Sukhumvit Square" ? I mean whosa name is on the land title deed(s)?
2. Were the tenants leasing directly from title holder, or were they subleasing?
3. Was there any conflict going on between any of these parties?
I have no doubt that the proprietors of these pubs and shops and sop on know EXACTLY why what happened, happened.
And it is most likely perfectly legal.
Just bear in mind that no farang owned entertainment place or restaurant is legal as no farang can get a work permit to operate such places. Therefore all such places are licensed, if at all, to a sham proprietor who is Thai. Such shams have very little standing or credibility under the law. In short, the landlord, his hired "security" personnel, and the police, and pretty much do as they like.
This is just a more abrupt version of what happened at Clinton Plaza.
The "tenants" are being treated like squatters. Legally they may very well have been exactly that. Time will tell.
Landlords faced with deadbeat tenants, or tenants resisting exiction or cancellation of lease, often in Thailand resort to midnight arson.
This wasn't THAT bad.
Best wait to hear both sides of this matter before talking about gestapo tactics.

Sauron asks the right questions...LOL...but he usually does when there is shit flying around.....
Nickel Co has just received a lease from landowner Silver Star Co, which bought the plot for 500 million baht from finance firm Tisco.
Tisco claimed the previous leaseholder BTR Holding, which had subleased the plot to about 100 traders, failed to honour its agreement.
Thats 4 sets involved......I believe the dispute was ongoing for some time....Legally as Sauron says they could have been squatters.....doesn't for me quite excuse the nature of the clearance.....example the pregnant woman kicked out leaving all the money, gold etc she needed in the coming months to finance it all....the caretakers wife...kicked out in her slippers....but you never know to what lengths people get pushed to to make such a decision...
Police said the men were led by Tawatchai Rungruang.
Sauron...any idea who this guy is?...the way it was written was as if we should all know...LOL
