The Phuket provincial court has issued an arrest warrant for taxi driver Paradorn Phuchaiyan, 49, for allegedly murdering a fellow taxi driver in Phuket’s Kathu district on Thursday, Patong precinct superintendent Pol Colonel Anothai Jindamanee said on Friday.

 

The suspect, who hails from Surat Thani, is wanted for premeditated murder and for carrying a gun in a public place. Anothai said police are still looking for him, though he is believed to have left the province.

 

 

Paradorn allegedly shot dead Songpol Suwansa-ard, 46, after a heated argument that escalated into a fistfight, before Paradorn went home to get his pistol and returned to allegedly shoot Songpol. The victim later succumbed to his injuries. 

 

Police suspect the argument stemmed from a personal conflict or a dispute over taxi queues.

Same behavior as a pubecent Western male, yet these two are pushing 50 years old.

How does this work? 

Is there a delay between the time the crime is committed and when the police can respond, while they wait for an arrest warrant. 

Seems an odd situation but I'm sure he will be arrested hiding at his Mama's house.

To win an argument here, you have to kill your opponent.

It does appear that way.

 

Meantine they sit on their butts waiting for the alleged murderer to hand himself in.

In some cases of male Thai behaviour these equate to the same thing !
