Police arrested a 60 year old Thai man after he locked his daughter-in-law in a small cottage and set fire to the property, resulting in her death. The murder was motivated by a series of disputes between the alleged alcoholic and the victim.

 

Officers from the Mueng Nakhon Si Thammarat Police Station, who were notified about the murder, rushed to the scene of the crime, a small fire-damaged wooden cottage. Upon investigating the cottage, an officer discovered the charred dead body of a 29 year old woman named Naruemon Katekaew.

 

The murderer in question was Naruemon’s father-in-law, 60 year old Lek Khunrat. He remained at the scene and was allegedly drunk when police arrived. He reportedly admitted to physically assaulting Naruemon but denied any involvement in setting her on fire.


Lek disclosed that he had a dispute with Naruemon in front of the cottage. With anger, he grabbed a knife and slashed her legs. Naruemon escaped into the cottage, so he locked her in there.

What is in the water in Nakhon Is Thammarat? The news you hear from this province shocks me

Probably of more relevance than the water is that all three of them were alleged drug abusers.

 

'According to Sanook, Lek had just been released from prison for a drug-related offence three months ago. Moreover, both Naruemon and Kanokpong were alleged drug users'.
