Police in Kamphaeng Phet have determined that the man found stuffed in a suitcase that washed aground on a sandbank in the Ping River is a Chinese national. 

 

He was named as 30 year old Jun Wang. 

 

He was found in Lan Dorkmai sub-district, Muang district of Kamphaeng Phet in the north of Thailand..

 

His feet were tied by plastic cable ties and his arms and body were secured by rope. There were reports that two men were seen dumping two bags from a bridge about 500 meters away.

 

Pol Maj-Gen Damrong Petrapong of Region 6 police met with investigators yesterday to discuss developments. 

 

CCTV indicates that a minivan was involved and that the van was likely rented by a Chinese person. Where it came from is not yet known. 

 

The victim came into Thailand on February 12th in a group of 15 people who stayed in Pattaya. 

 

The movements of the group were described as "not normal".

 

The rest of the group are believed to have gone back to China on the 14th. 

 

Investigations continue. 

 

Daily News published two pictures of the deceased taken from his passport and a latest photo that appeared to be at an immigration counter.

Perhaps he did not pay for his round of drinks  ????

[transam]

Hmmmm, inside job....????

[4MyEgo]

The perfect dumping ground, that is until the body surfaced in the bag.

 

I hope it was a quick death. RIP

With thunders of thousands of Chinese running around this country, go figure who's is a tourist and who's not and it's not unthinkable that many of them are not here just for the Thai food and sunny beaches...

[ChipButty]

Thai's used to complain about Farang criminals, You aint seen nothing yet these Chinese way out number Farangs the Triad's are everywhere 

[Emdog]

Clearly a suicide. Case closed, or suitcase closed

[Deli]

He packed his bag

[Scouse123]

They have caused havoc all over Cambodia and now they are doing the same in Thailand. The sheer numbers of them making it so difficult to track.

 

Amazingly for some reason in Cambodia, the authorities do not seem to charge them. They are rounded up, held in detention, and then a plane arrives from China with Chinese police to take the ' guilty parties ' back, to be punished in China.

 

That is what was happening at Sihanoukville.

 

Back to Thailand, not much of a sightseeing trip by the Chinese to arrive on the 12th February, murder this guy and depart on the 14th February. The group headed for Pattaya and his body ends up in Northern Thailand.

Why is it a perfect dumping ground?

 

OK , The river around that "island" was dredged about 10 years ago to remove silt and improve river flow but it was always gonna get caught up some where there ...The next bridge down would have been better. Faster river flow and less eyes...

[Happy Grumpy]

So the 14 simply went back to China without happening to mention they were 1 short?

It was a figure of speech, i.e. go on holidays with your mates, leave one behind, if you were going to get rid of him, any questions, all anyone would have to say is, we last saw him when he went to go back to the hotel.

 

I mean, no one would ask about him in Thailand because they wouldn't know he was missing, back in China it would be hard to investigate, probably fell in love and decided to stay, another overstayer as far as Thailand would be concerned, people disappear all the time overseas.

Boy, I know we have all gone a bit crazy on a bender in Pattaya sometimes, but not a great advert to drive you crazy , commit murder, dispose of a corpse and fly home within 48 hours.

Of course you are correct in that sense but a stabbing and killing outside the Phet hotel from the nightclub wouldn't have carried any news because it happens so often  ....and certainly wouldn't have been news worthy for Thaivisa..

 

Unless you are an undercover journalist investigating the illegal exportation of hazardous goods to Africa.....Nah!

Thank god I was wrong. Bad people just evil.

"not normal"

What is not normal?!? In many societies 'normal' is defined as doing the same stupid things everybody does...
In general, I like not-normal people so much better than the boring normal people. I know I am not normal and proud of it ????????

more likely that his chinese friends had too much to drink and killed him,

or maybe it was a chinese criminal gang and they had a long time dispute.

 

when i visited china i allmost was attacked there twice for refusing to drink

as they offered to me. what started as a friendly invitation to join a group

of man drinking, soon turned into a nightmare when they forced me to

finish another cup of warm beer and another one, surrounding me and shouting

with very serious and aggresive looking faces.

Looks like the cops are on the case in force. He could have been thrown in the Wang River.

means that they did not go to gogo clubs and beer bars and did

not came back drunk at 3am, as most visitors to pattaya normally do

[impulse]

Their mistake was putting too much effort into concealing the body.   Rookie error for LOS.

 

Hang it in the guy's room, throw it off a balcony, or run over it with a car and leave it at the side of a road, and it could have been the perfect crime suicide.

 

[A Los for words]

An open and shut case.

[EdwardMusschenga]

He probably booked a “Package Tour”......

[neeray]

Maybe the virus got him and the group of 14 decided to close the case quickly.
