A Som Tam seller has given himself up to police in Udon Thani after he was caught on video stabbing his wife's rival in a fight in a street in the village of Ban Dong Yuat.

 

In the fight Suphatra Ooiha, 19, was getting the better of Praew when the latter's husband joined the affray wielding a knife used to slice up papaya.

 

One swift blow to the left ribs punctured the young woman's lung. Medics soon at the scene took her to Soon Udon Thani hospital where she died.

 

Monkhol Sewtawong, 25, fled the scene of the attack on Sunday but gave himself up to police on Monday.

 

He was taken on a brief reenactment to the scene of the murder amid fears of a lynching from Suphatra's relatives.

 

He has admitted killing his wife's rival saying they had had a disagreement over a long period. He couldn't stand by when his wife was losing the fight, he said.

 

He went with his wife to the area to sell som tam at the Bun Bang Fai (rocket festival) parade in the town. The fight broke out when the parade was over.

Totally abhorrent.

Only sentence for this cowardly thuggery is an extremely lengthy spell incarcerated.

The som tam wars...…Yawn   You know he could have just attempted to drag them apart. It was only a bit of hair pulling after all. The girl throwing what looks like a plastic glass was probably the most violent part until Sir Knife-a-lot

Turns up.

What a crazy bar steward, he had no intention of breaking up the fight, charging in with a knife, intent on causing harm, lock him up for life.

we see this every dam week, its in their make up, in the western world the man would have just broken up the fight and pulled them apart, but, not here this shit for brains has to be a big boy and carry a knife and kill some one for no reason. hope he spends a long time in jail and when he gets out, gets a dose of street justice.

Rocket festival, somtam, catfight, childman stabbing - this story has the full Thainess monty........except for an etan not allowing the rescue ambulance to pass as it rushed the victim to hospital.

Now, of course something has to be done about that. How about beeing a man and just separate the two women?

Hope the scum gets his head caved in in jail. Utter scum.

Well it has been a real good news week so far,and where only up to tuesday.

R.I.P young lady

What a lawless uneducated country, hope he gets life in prison or hung up by the balls 

Always be a third world country

What a totally senseless loss of life, and for what?  Is it macho to end up in prison?

theirs no real men in Thailand.

That's how so many foreigners get murdered too; psychotic reactions/lose face.

Why is it so many just do and don't  think?

I presume the violence shown in Thai soaps on tv don't really help.

He could have just pushed the woman away, but no, he had to use a knife and murder her. Wow, what a hero 

omg, what an utterly cowardly and terrible thing to do, words fail me. I only hope that as a confession won't be required, he isn't allowed to.

I read about punishment in Saudi Arabia. long prison term and heavy public whipping once a weak

 

While I am not a fan of sharia or other kinds of violent punishment, I guess that kind of face loss might be  able to effectively decrease the number of homicide in LOS and save many lives.

 

A thread popped up on r/Thailand recently about Thai middle class keeping the lower classes down and preventing them from having democracy. I couldn't be bothered to engage, but it always surprises me when people assume that the lower class Thais are in any position to choose their own government.

 

Personally I think they've got a long way to go before they are responsible enough to do so. Once they stop believing in magic, raping their children and killing each other over trivial nonsense (and start letting ambulances past), they might be ready. As it is, they are far too selfish and short sighted.

He wanted only help......

uhhh strange but maybe the girl commit suicide, its the usual statement  "police" conclude.

(ah ok its only in case foreign get killed...)

Not even an attempt to separate the 2 bitches.
A cowardly murder instead. 
Senseless bastard.
Eye for an eye - lifelong prison is too good for this thug.

I've sen videos of guys kicking women in the head who were fighting their partner, and much more. It isn't just subject to the part of the world

Cowardly hit and run. No brains, no heart, no balls, little dick.

Barbarian simpleton!!!

A Som Tam seller has given himself up to police in Udon Thani ONLY after he was caught on video 

Savages !  No judgement or self control of any kind !
