A Thai man who has admitted to murdering another man in south Pattaya in 2004 has been arrested in Nakorn Ratchasima.

 

Somkhit or Thammaniyom, now 31, was apprehended on the second floor of Big C in Nai Muang sub-district of the north eastern gateway city on Wednesday.

 

He was out shopping with his girlfriend without a care in the world.

 

He has admitted to murdering Siriwatana in South Pattaya in August 2004 after a disagreement at an entertainment venue at the resort.

 

He had been wanted on a murder and gun offences warrant ever since. He told police he had worked as a general employee at a company where they did not check his background.

 

Police recently got fresh information that he was staying with a woman in Korat and managed to track him down resulting in Wednesday's arrest.

 

Sanook reported that he has now been taken back to Pattaya.

Good job he was not wanted for smoking or vaping on the beach or he would have been in very serious trouble .

Where he was promptly ordered to smoke on the beach in order to get a bigger sentence and fine

Thats always the case in Thailand, biggest snitches in the world.... No saving face there, maybe put in down to a cultural thing. 

[petermik]

No matter what the circumstances of his arrest....well done the Police......lock him up for a very long time

[kcpattaya]

After 13 years - the warrant already expired and suspect is free to leave?
Or it this another care than the Boss (Red Bull)?

Nah big misunderstanding I am sure he is very sorry for what he did Police will look at it like he has learnt his lesson and he has not killed anyone in 13 years 20 push -up on footpath in front of police station should be sufficent

Someone dobbed him in. No effort required - a quick phone call + details of his address and even the Kwaistone cops couldn't mess it up.

[balo]

He is not in jail yet

He was 18 and maybe on drugs , maybe he didn't know what he was doing , maybe he do not remember. 

Let's bring him back to Pattaya and then wai in public , then maybe go and do some time at the local temple.

I believe in most countries kcpattaya - there is no statute of limitations for murder. Therefore a warrant would be moot.
