A Thai man is in custody after a woman was stabbed to death on Pattaya Beach on Friday morning.

 

Shocked onlookers witnessed the attack which left the woman with fatal injuries to her back and neck. 

 

Witnesses said the man and the 31 year old victim had been seen arguing moments before the attack took place just after 8am. 

 

Police later apprehended the man, who was reportedly still holding the knife, on Pattaya Second Road.

 

The man, who had also suffered minor injuries, said the victim attacked him first and he was acting in self defence. He said the victim had been arguing with his sister and he was trying to resolve the issue. 

 

Police said the suspect had only been released from prison on 8th December 2020 after serving time for drug offences. 

 

The investigation into the incident remains ongoing. Police said they are examining CCTV footage.

By getting involved and bringing a knife... what tosh.

[dcsw53]

Just another day in the family resort. Thankfully these days family free.
Condolences to the lady, whatever the issue a knife attack is beyond the pale.

Self defense is only allowable with proportional violence. Him bringing a knife also speaks against him. 

 

Did the woman have a weapon too ? If not then this guy will be (hopefully) in serious problems.

Eye witness in this video says he stabbed her about ten times, she tried to run away, but he chased her and kept stabbing.

Video also has the killer talking with the police/press.

Let's hope it is one that is working .

When I walk on the promenade, I sometimes sees (mostly women) talking to themselves, sometimes shouting, clearly on jabba.

 

I give them a wide berth.

 

So almost a month out of jail for drug offenses and now off to the slammer again, this time for a very long time.

So much for prison reform, back inside within a month on a life term.

Possibly debt collecting.

Any time the phrase "in broad daylight" is used you know something terrible happened. Nobody ever says anything like "They had a lovely picnic in broad daylight."

Another Somchai that can't control his emotions and can't foresee the consequences of his actions. 

So many walking timebombs in Thailand....scary

     Give it a rest.  Every city in the World has cases of domestic violence.  Your time might be better spent going on to Chicago Visa and commenting on the 875 murders Chicago had last year.

Give it a rest. So you have Pattaya and Chicago, Thailand and America, neither exactly representative of the rest of the world, in fact probably both in the bottom ten safest: up there with failed states and war zones.

[mortiboy]

"was acting in self defence"....... Stabbed in the back and neck? Really!
