Police say mutilated corpse found in Ayutthaya could be “white skinned” foreigner

Police say mutilated corpse found in Ayutthaya could be “white skinned” foreigner

Police in Ayutthaya are investigating after the torso of a man was found in one district and the legs and arms in another.
 
But the head is still missing.
 
They say it could be a Thai or a foreigner - they have no missing person's report yet.
 
All motives are on the table as a large task force has been assembled to handle the case.
 
A tips hotline has been set up.
 
Wang Noi police were first called after a man's torso was found in an area of a deserted housing estate leading to a brick factory.
 
The arms and the legs and the head were missing. He was thought to be aged about 25-30.
 
Though 30% burnt in a fire ignited to conceal evidence the police say he was white skinned suggesting he may be a foreigner.
 
Then Bang Pa-In police found burnt legs and arms by the side of route 347 (Pathum Thani to Bang Pahan Road) in Bang Pahan district. 
 
Pol Col Chainarong Somphroh organised a video conference to handle the case before telling the press that no head had been found and no missing person's report had been received. 
 
DNA tests were being carried out with the expectation that the parts belonged to the same man.
 
Later yesterday region 1 deputy commander Maj-Gen Suphathee Bunkhrong said that the complex case would be investigated by seven separate units.
 
This included an immigration unit as there is a feeling this could be a foreigner because of the white skin, he said.
 
Witnesses had reported a fire at 10pm on Sunday night. The man was 160-165 cms tall. 
 
All CCTV on the route between the remains is being studied. 
 
Police are keen for tips particularly about a missing person and have established a hotline on 06 2271 6711. 
 
More about this as we hear of it.

That's why the police think he's a foreigner - the body is too big for a Thai.

Poor planning on disposal of body parts suggests lack of premeditation. Great effort made to conceal identity (removal of head, burning of arms/legs) suggests perpetrator knew that there was a high risk that if body is identified, suspect(s) would also be quickly identified. Failure to anticipate that identity can be confirmed through DNA link with relatives, suggests lack of criminal sophistication and probable low educational level of perpetrator.

 

If it was a drug deal gone bad, with only transient relationship between victim and perpetrator, need to conceal identity of victim wouldn't be that high. I'm thinking victim was offed for financial gain by known close associate, probably a romantic partner who had help disposing of body from family members or friends.

I'm told this is not a foreigner but a Thai, says the Mrs who's watching the news.

 

Also, they found the head today.

If it turns out to be a farang, cause of death will be a 'misunderstanding'

A trolling post re the language terms used in the OP news report has been removed.

I'm eagerly awaiting developments in the case to see if any of my hunches pan out. Have had a long term interest in criminology, and was only speculating on what the early clues might be telling the cops. Sorry if I was too analytical for the TVF bar stool plebeians.

Wasn't that guesstimate after they'd found the legs; before they'd found the head though?

A possible new serpent on the loose for the police to hone their fine work  ????

Good work by the police thus far, all parts are now in their possession. 

Let's wait and hear it all.

Yes, but are they all being stored at the same location I wonder? Perhaps some parts are at the head office.

Covid?

I hope the perpetrators will one day be judged for their inhumane acts.

It could have been suicide?
