Thai wife shoots husband's mistress dead but he survives shooting

 

Picture: Sanook

 

A Thai wife bent on revenge went armed with a 9 mm gun to lie in wait for her husband and his "mia noi" (minor wife or mistress) to arrive at her shop in Lampang on Wednesday evening. 

 

When they did she unloaded the pistol into them both. Then she waited nearby drinking a beer for the cops to come and arrest her. 

 

The mistress later died while the husband - a prison officer - is still alive in a grievous condition in hospital.

 

The drama happened outside a second hand clothes shop in Chompoo sub-district of Muang district in the northern Thai city of Lampang. 

 

Tittichada, 42, the shop owner and Anuwat, 52, an officer at Lampang prison, were both shot. 

 

Tittichada was shot in the back of the head as she tried to enter her shop. Anuwat was shot in the ribs. 

 

Four shell casings and two bullets were found at the crime scene that had been taped off as forensics began their work around 7 pm. 

 

Nearby drinking a beer outside a convenience store was the wife of Anuwat, fifty five year old Prapha.

 

A 9mm CZ (Ceska Zbrojovka) semi-automatic Czech made pistol was taken from her. 

 

Sanook said the evidence was that Prapha rode her yellow Honda Dream motorcycle to a nearby market and parked and waited for her husband and his mistress to arrive in a Nissan car. 

 

When they did she approached them as they exited the car and shot at them multiple times.

 

The husband ended up slumped in the middle of the road as the wife chased after the mistress and shot her at the entrance to her clothes shop. When the gun jammed she left the scene. 

 

Police arrested her nearby where she was waiting accompanied by a member of the public who ensured that she did not leave and who called the rescue foundation and the police. 

 

Prapha said that she had known about her husband's affair for a long time. She had told the couple to end the relationship but they refused. 

 

She said she wanted revenge so she rode to the area with a gun and shot them both. 

 

The mistress died later in hospital but the husband is still alive.

 

Prapha is in custody and has been charged though the exact nature of the charge was not reported by Sanook.

I can't work out what that means?

I sometimes get the feeling maybe divorce lawyers should reduce their prices to save lives.

There always has been. Except in the past you had to read Thai to access this kind of news.

 

Bluesofa...grievous means serious or severe.

The Honda dream was yellow.

But what was the model and color of the Nissan?

Sloppy reporting.

Cheers for that.

I had assumed it only meant vicious, but couldn't work it out in the context of that sentence.

 

[seahorse]

Another example of that fragile Thai female ego.

Divorce lawyers aren't even needed, as you could witness, because Thai people resolve everything with the gun.

Don't need a lawyer to get divorced in Thailand.  You just both turn up at the office where you got married and say you want to get a divorce.  Then sign the papers and off you go.  My wife's sister did it last month then went back to work.

[JulesMad]

....and they lived happily ever after....

Watch and listen to Thai news on the tv, it's quite an eye opener .

Did the wife do him a favor? Now he's free from both of them to find a younger duckling.

it does happen everyday, atleast once a day, it is just that english speaking news in thailand don't publish majority of murders and other crimes, ive seen many cases on facebook from family of murder victims ask for help and share it to make it viral. 

 

for those who have not seen there was a similar case also in lampang 2 weeks ago, 3 dead including the jealous gunman.

Or should that be "filling every hole" seconded by love affair with guns?

[Skallywag]

Moral to the story - never tell your wife where you live or what car you drive. 555

or better yet - dont marry

A grievous and irremediable medical condition is defined in the Bill as having all of the following characteristics: ... The person's natural death has become reasonably foreseeable due to all of their medical circumstances, without requiring that a prognosis has been made as to the length of time that they have remaining.

[nursebob]

don't they have crime of passion over here?

My wife tells me knivings, bashings and cars being painted with Mai Noi are fairly common. You just got to read the local gossip Facebook groups to see how often it is going on. 

[observer90210]

When it's not a jealous man who shoots his gal, it the other way round....they really all seem the same when it comes to ego, jealousy and brainless acts.

 

On further thought, better think twice and make a proper check before getting your willy entertained by a new  gal just met....
