An Indian man in Pathum Thani murdered and dismembered a compatriot who he believed had tipped off immigration police about him overstaying his visa.

 

Raviprakash Singh, 29, was arrested on Wednesday after confessing to the murder of 52 year old Mahesh Singh.

 

Raviprakash told police how he attacked Mahesh with a metal bar at his home before cutting his body in two and dumping it under a bridge in Thanyaburi district.

 

Police said Raviprakash and Mahesh had been in a dispute with one another over a land deal back in India.

 

Raviprakash had twice been arrested for visa overstay in Thailand and had been released after paying bail of 50,000 baht and 30,000 baht, respectively, Naew Na reported. 

 

Police said that on the day of his arrest, Thanyaburi district court was preparing documents that would see Raviprakash deported from Thailand.

 

Raviprakash told officers he believed that Mahesh had tipped them off about his overstay.

 

Police said that Raviprakash was found to be in possession of the keys to Mahesh’s motorcycle.

 

As well as charges related to overstay, police charged Raviprakash with premeditated murder and the concealment and destruction of a corpse.

Better India spends the money on incarcerating him than Thailand.

 

You think Thai prisons are bad? Imagine being locked up in a room with 500 sweaty Indians and no ventilation.

Dismembering means removing limbs whist the victim is alive.

Probably 11.15 am arrested and charged for overstay - 30k

arrested 11.30 am and charged for overstay - 50k

arrested 11.45 am for murder

Baboo is cutting?

These types in Thailand are often wanted criminals in their home countries, possibly facing a death penalty. It's one of the reasons why it's good practice in Thailand to avoid conflict. Plenty of these types from various countries all over Thailand.

Maybe it´s just me, but I really find these two statements contradicting each other in some strange way.

 

However, this story just reminded me to never squeal on a person on overstay. Spill your guts and your guts will be spilled! ????

No vegetable biryani at the BKK Hilton!

Ah well at least he gets to stay in Thaialnd ????

Doesn't dismemberment require limb detachment? He was only halved. 

I expect he is due for a bit more overstay then.

Paid bail,,,twice, for overstay....    I thought once caught you were detained until deported...       Oh, sorry,, BP meant  paid brown envelopes.
