snoop1130 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Man claims he killed wife and two children over loan shark threats By The Nation A Thai man who attempted to kill himself after he stabbed his 25-year-old wife and two children to death, has claimed the family agreed to die to avoid the threat of loan sharks. Police said Natthasak Khamkhern, 46, admitted murdering his wife and two children, aged five and one, in their shop house on Hathairat Road in Bangkok's Khlong Sam Wa district on Thursday afternoon. Natthasak - who had no prior criminal history and was described as a diligent family man - was recovering from serious injuries in hospital. Metropolitan Police Bureau Division 3 chief Pol Maj General Somnuek said Natthasak is grief stricken and is on suicide watch. Natthasak admitted to the triple murders and claimed that all consented to die as a solution to the family's financial problems, said Somnuek. Despite the man's claim, police would continue to probe the incident to confirm if the motive stemmed from the debt to a loan shark, as Natthasak claimed, or a domestic dispute was involved, Somnuek said. Police would probe the loan shark motive speedily as the government has a policy to crack down on illegal moneylenders and influential figures, he added. A source at the Metropolitan Police Bureau said that the city police chief Pol Lt-General Suttipong Wongpin had also signed an instruction for his subordinates, including Somnuek, to speedily investigate the case and provide him with periodic updates.

If you want more then the "very influential man" for the province is the "go-to" man.... collections made daily by his team of collectors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer90210 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 It's about time the Thai administration offered the concept of microCredit that has been adopted worldwide in many countries and that was developped by a BanglaDeshi economist. But naturally, this will take away business from many a mafia gangleader or from many a corrupt police officer loan shark in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
