After the story was widely shared on Thai social media district chief of Phu Pha Man Chinkorn Kaenkhong and other officials and police went to the village of Ban Nong Haew. 

 

They found the mother drunk. 

 

She said that she just did it to get at her Russian husband who she said didn't ever send her money for the baby's milk. 

 

Suphaporn said that she had been married three times and had four children. Her latest husband was a Russian called Alexander with whom she had lived for a long time while working in Pattaya. 

 

She didn't mean to harm baby Andrei but was fed up with not having enough money. She had come back to her hometown village three weeks ago.

 

The officials accepted this and left her in the care of the phu yai ban and relatives.
