webfact Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 Family of five shot dead in Thung Kru By The Nation Police have launched an investigation into a shooting in Bangkok’s Thung Kru district that left two men, two women and a child dead. Pol Colonel Kritsana Pattanacharoen, deputy police spokesman, said the five people – a grandfather, grandmother, mother, father and a nine-year-old boy – were killed in their home in Suksawat alley at around 8.30am on Thursday (September 17). The family had been running a chemical business from the house. The forensic team collecting evidence from the crime scene found a gun in the hand of the boy’s father, who was identified as “Lek”. Neighbours said they heard the grandmother shout: “Lek, you’re hurting me.” Police believe Lek may have been facing financial stress and decided to murder his father, mother, wife and son before killing himself.

A nine year old kid could not possibly make an informed decision to take his own life. So, at the very least, that part of it was murder. I suspect 3 of the others weren't too enthusiastic about the idea either. Edited September 17, 2020 by Poet 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condolences to the innocent deceased, but this has all the hallmarks of deep debt biting in and the loss of everything. But to take out the whole family is beyond me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
