POLICE are tracking down a Polish man who is likely heading for the Thai-Cambodian border after his Ukrainian girlfriend was found dead in a Bangkok condo Monday afternoon (May 15), TV Channel 7 said this evening.

 

The body of the unidentified 27-year-old Ukrainian woman was found in a condo at Charoen Rat road, Bang Khlo subdistrict, Bang Kho Laem district, with sharp wounds on the neck and shoulder and left wrist cut off. A saw was found next to her body.

 

The condo management told police that the deceased woman and her 25-year-old Polish boyfriend had come to Thailand on a holiday and rented this unit on April 29, 2023.

 

This afternoon the Polish man called a taxi to pick him up at the condo. However the taxi driver noticed that he looked suspicious, being in an unusually big hurry, so he mentioned his observation to the guard and told him to wait.

Polish Man Allegedly Kills and Dismembers Ukrainian Woman at a Bangkok Condo
By Goongnang Suksawat

 

 

Bangkok – A Polish man has allegedly murdered a Ukrainian woman and dismembered her by cutting apart her body with a saw at a condominium in Bangkok.

Update 11:00 P.M., May 15th, 2023: The suspect was arrested attempting to cross the border at the Ban Khlong Luek border checkpoint, Aranyaprathet District, Sa Kaeo Province. He remains in custody and under interrogation as of press time.

 

The Wat Phraya Krai Police told TPN media that they were notified of the horrific incident at a condominium in Bang Kho Laem on Monday (May 15th).

 

Law enforcement arrived at the room in question on the 32nd floor of the condo, whose name was withheld by police, to find the body of a 27-year-old Ukrainian woman lying on the bed (TPN media is withholding her name pending embassy and family notification). Her body was reportedly cut into multiple parts and a saw was found left in her mutilated remains, said Wat Phraya Krai police.

 

She was estimated to have been deceased for 24-hours, said a Thai medical examiner. Her body was discovered when an unidentified condo security guard observed the suspect rushing to leave the building with luggage without the woman, who he had previously been seen with daily since late April. The guard found this suspicious and juristic officials gained access to the horrific scene in the condo.

Why is it when it's a Thai national that is wanted for murder, they usually pixelate the face (and so you can't tell who to look for while they walk amongst us), but not when it's a foreigner?  Just an observation.

Those quality tourists Phipat was targeting?

RIP ???? . Trust they RTP actually find this guy ?

Hope they find this creep. Obviously the relationship was not working out. What do real men do? They try to fix things. And what do they do when things cannot be fixed? They walk away, and wish their woman well. 

 

Of course, that is not accounting for a man who is a pathological super freak, with a completely bent mind.

Wonder if the RTP will move that fast to arrest fleeing generals that may well be imminent ????

how sick does a person have to be to dismember someone after killing them?

 

I'm glad they caught him.  Sick bastard.

Commenting for a friend. She thinks maybe the Polish man might have indulged in the delights of Thailand and she found out, maybe a cross border fight ensued with the deceased Ukrainian woman.

That or maybe she got a man on the side after she discovered the Polish kielbasa her boyfriend promised her turned out to be more like a Vienna sausage.

Why dismember her and leave before hide the body?

must have take some time to do so.  
so many questions,, but I think we gone hear all of it later. 
dick guy, may he get the same like she get.

It's a macabre topic, but it was mentioned that 'a saw was found in her body', probably meaning that, while he tried to dismember her, the saw got stuck... That's maybe when he panicked and tried to leave as quickly as possible.

 

May she R.I.P.

Oh yes, they got him. Was on Thai TV news earlier....

 

Apparently he got into a taxi and told the driver to take him somewhere neat the Cambodia border, but the taxi driver was suspicious and spoke to the security.

 

The way I heard it was they started asking questions and perhaps wanted to go to the apartment - at that point he ran away and jumped into another taxi.

 

This prompted them to call the cops who found the body. To find where he was heading they asked the first taxi driver and despite telling this driver his destination he continued to the same destination - this guy is no 'Jason Bourne' - and he got caught so quickly due to being a little bit dim by the sounds of it.

 

 

He’d better polish up on his Thai as he’s going to need it in prison.

As part of the ongoing investigation, authorities are set to liaise with interpreters and representatives from the Polish Embassy, who are expected to participate in the inquiry at Wat Phraya Krai Police Station.

 

Mr. Lagoda stands accused of a particularly ghastly crime - the murder and subsequent dismemberment of his Ukrainian girlfriend. As this chilling case continues to unfold, further details are anticipated to come to light.

In 2017 it was a very similar case here in Thailand.

A foreigner murdered a friend, dismembered the victim, and rushed to the border. 

Got death sentence, and I guess still on death row.

 

'A Spanish man was sentenced to death by a Thai court Friday for the grisly murder of a fellow Spaniard whose dismembered body parts were discovered in Bangkok’s main river last year.'

 

https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/spaniard-sentenced-death-thailand-grisly-murder/

 

 

Horrid, indeed inhuman, individuals. I am mostly anti death penalty, but have second thoughts when truly gruesome crimes are perpetrated and guilt is proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Same goes for the guy who murdered the Thai/ Brit boy and apparently the Thai girlfriend.

If the headsman cannot be utilized  the animals should be maintained in even more deplorable conditions than I understand prisoners here “enjoy”.  Give them a foretaste of what karma supposedly has in store for a billion years in a Thai imaged Hell.

My knee jerk opinion on these recent atrocities.

I always say Thailand needs to be more selective when permitting foreigners from certain countries to enter Thailand.  Repeal Visa on Arrival and Visa Free entry for countries like Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Belarus, Lithuania, Romania, Nigeria, Kazakhstan, China and some other countries. Most of the so-called "Quality tourists" (sarcastic) arrive from the above mentioned countries. Let them obtain a proper visa at Thai Consulate in their home country before they are allowed to enter Thailand.

That condo probably had the most alert security guard .... ever. Well done that man!

Not the sharpest saw in the shed I'd gather. Then again, if he had any modicum of intelligence I guess this wouldn't have happened at all.

 

sad story indeed

 

UPDATE

Polish man murders and dismembers Ukrainian girlfriend in Bangkok condo

A Polish man allegedly murdered and dismembered his 25 year old Ukrainian girlfriend “Alona” inside a condo room in the heart of Bangkok, Thailand. He tried to flee the country via taxi yesterday but was arrested near the border of Cambodia in Sa Keao province last night.

Yesterday, police from Wat Phraya Krai Police Station were informed that the body of a Ukrainian woman was discovered in a condo room in Bang Khlo subdistrict in the Bang Kho Laem district of Bangkok.

Inside room No.708 on the 32nd floor, police found 25 year old Alona Shevchenko’s bloody, dismembered body lying on the bed. A saw was laid across her body parts, police said. Police estimated she was killed one to two days prior.

 

Police say Alona stayed with her 25 year old boyfriend Lagoda Filippow Jan Jerzy of Polish nationality. The couple entered Thailand as tourists on April 29, 2023, and rented a condo room in Bangkok together.

 

At noon yesterday, Lagoda packed his bags and ordered a taxi to the border in Sa Keao province for 1,500 baht. The taxi driver noticed that Filippow was acting suspiciously hasty and informed the security guard at the condo.

It looks like an impulsive crime. No planning even 5 minutes ahead.

This is a load of absolute garbage. British, Australian, German and Scandinavian men make the news the most often.

You can critique a place without needing to "leave".

 

Plus, on the whole, a lot of Thai institutions do need criticising...maybe they might up their game!

 

RAZZ

Glad the Thai authorities were on the ball in this instance 

And caught the guy concerned in this gruesome murder

Same the taxi driver informing the hotel staff something was not right about his passenger 

Should enjoy ( not ) his extended stay in prison
