Witnesses told police that a male suspect used a long knife to attack the victim before speeding away with a gold necklace.

The suspect later surrendered to Phuket City police but his name and age was not immediately made available to the press.

A 6.45am gold robbery? I suspect the victim and perpetrator were known to each other.  The gold is a side issue.

Name withheld? Pending the search for the foreign gang leader?

I feel that a crime is not a crime unless there is some pointing going on.

R I P. But where are all those necklaces gone ?
