Man Gunned Down Outside His Home in Krabi, Police Suspect the Killer Knew Victim’s Routine
Picture from responders. A 51-year-old man was shot dead outside his home in Krabi province late on the night of 12 April in what police suspect was a targeted ambush. The assailant, or assailants, are believed to have lain in wait in a nearby oil palm plantation before opening fire with a shotgun. Police from Lam Thap Police Station, along with medical staff and rescue workers, were called to the scene in Lam Thap subdistrict. The victim, identified as Mr Karun, was found kneeling face down in a pool of blood behind his partially constructed, single-storey concrete house. His body showed dozens of wounds to the head and torso caused by shotgun pellets. Several spent shotgun shells of different sizes were recovered at the scene. Police believe the killer knew the victim’s daily routine. According to initial findings, Mr Karun would regularly visit a nearby community leader’s house in the evening before returning home around 21:00. On the night of the murder, it is believed a gunman may have called out to the victim from behind the house. When he went to check, the attacker opened fire, shooting him multiple times before fleeing under the cover of darkness into the plantation. Mr Karun lived alone at the house, which was still under construction. His wife and children stayed at another home nearby. Ms Ubon, the victim’s 48-year-old sister, who lives in an adjacent house, told police she heard two loud gunshots around the time of the murder. At first, she and her husband assumed someone might have been shooting at dogs. However, moments later, they heard more gunfire, two shots followed by three in quick succession. Alarmed, she called her sister-in-law and together they went to investigate, only to find Mr Karun dead behind the house. Ms Arthityaphan, the victim’s 47-year-old wife, said her husband had been slowly building the house over time and preferred to sleep there alone while continuing the work. She was alerted by her sister-in-law, who had heard the gunshots. She rushed to the house and found the front door shut but the rear door open. There she discovered her husband’s lifeless body. She said her husband had not been in conflict with anyone recently and had focused on his farming work. An old affair from over ten years ago had long since been resolved, and she doubted it was related to the killing. She urged police to thoroughly investigate the case and swiftly bring the perpetrator to justice. Police continue to search for suspects and are examining whether the murder was linked to personal conflict or other motives. -- 2025-04-14 -

Swiss Volunteers Join Locals in Forest Conservation Effort in Kanchanaburi
Picture courtesy of Kaoded. A group of Swiss university students have joined hands with Thai environmental volunteers in Kanchanaburi province to carry out a nature conservation project aimed at protecting the local ecosystem and promoting sustainable forest management. Mr Wasan Sunjirat, Chair of the Subdistrict Environmental Volunteer Network in Chong Sadao, Mueang District, Kanchanaburi, led the initiative in collaboration with “Our Land – A Nature Conservation Effort”, an environmental organisation working in Thailand. The event took place in Moo 5, Kaeng Pla Kot village, Chong Sadao subdistrict. The conservation activities included the construction of small check dams designed to slow water flow, increase groundwater absorption, improve moisture retention in the upper watershed, and mitigate soil erosion and riverbank collapse. These dams also help to trap sediments, thereby improving both the quantity and quality of water sources for human use and wildlife habitats. In addition to the dam building, volunteers engaged in forest restoration work by planting native tree seeds and transferring saplings into seedling bags. The aim is to strengthen the young plants in preparation for reforestation efforts, supporting biodiversity and long-term ecological balance. This initiative served not only to promote active participation in environmental protection but also to foster cultural exchange between Thai youth and the Swiss students. The project reflects the strength of international cooperation in preserving Thailand’s natural resources and highlights the role of community involvement in sustainable environmental stewardship. Organisers hailed the event as a meaningful step towards building environmental awareness and cross-cultural understanding, proving that collaborative action, local and global, can make a lasting impact. -- 2025-04-14
