Video: Resort owner's son gunned down in front of construction workers by hitman

 

Picture: Sanook

 

CCTV showed the moment when a hitman arrived to shoot a resort owner's son at a construction site in Suphanburi.

 

The man on a motorcycle with no plates with his identity concealed by a full face helmet shot multiple times at Manote, 39, a resort manager. 

 

He managed to run away 50 meters but the hitman chased and continued shooting until he fell. The hitman then rode off leaving startled construction workers to get Manote to Pornchai Hospital where he later died. 

 

The drama happened about 1 pm at an area where a market and party venue was being constructed next to the Chuem Sanit Resort on Route 357.

 

Manote had been overseeing construction work before going across the road to a house to have lunch with his father.

 

It proved to be his final meal; he set off back to the contstruction site after eating, riding his motorcycle. 

 

Soon the hitman arrived and shot several times at him. He ran off 50 meters and was hit multiple times again in the head and body after the hitman chased him on foot.

 

The hitman then calmly rode off in the direction of Muang district and disappeared. 

 

Sriprajan police and forensics officers were examining the two scenes of the shooting where they found casings and bullets all from the same 11 mm gun. 

 

Sanook reported that the deceased had borrowed 3 million baht to build a house.

 

Police are working on the theory that a dispute resulted in a hit.

Well, there are 3 million reasons in the report.

Quite glad me and the wife are reasonably 'poor' enough to avoid the need for a hitman !

20,000 bht hitman probably.

1. Even where I live up country there are hitmen. My wife points them out all of the time. Some even work for the police..OR maybe she trying to tell me something? LOL.

 

2. My best friend was killed by a hitman in Dallas, TX. His wife (Thai) and her lover hired a one eyed hitman to shoot him while taking a shower in the morning. She is now serving 40 years in the Pen; she copped a plea deal  after the boyfriend confessed. Boyfriend got 25 years for confessing. One Eyed hitman got Life in Prison.

Why is it that in Thailand a hitman turns up for a job on a little motorbike ?  No flashy fast car or 1000cc superbike ?  It is an example of how cheap you can buy a shooter in Thailand.

Doesn't matter. All the police have to do is check CCTV for the only motorcycle rider wearing a helmet ????

Because he blends in. If you turn up in a flashy car everybody notices where it came from and where it goes to.

Moral of the story,

Be very careful who you borrow money from & pay interest & principal back on time if you have to borrow.

But you never know, maybe he was shagging someones wife

"Police are working on the theory that a dispute resulted in a hit."

... or an agreement? Or a dispute over an agreement, or a disagreement over a dispute, perhaps a disputed disagreement over an agreement??? C'mon BIB Sherlocks, you got this!
