When a mentally ill son woke up in the middle of the night to find his father dead, he bravely trekked over 7 kilometres on foot to the police station. Police are investigating the suspicious case of his father’s death, which occurred yesteray in Chumphon province’s Thung Tako district.

 

The investigative officer, Police Lieutenant Colonel Paisan Srisawat, was alerted by a 51 year old man named Den (a pseudonym) that his 79 year old father was killed inside their house in Thung Tako. The police officer, finding signs of mental instability in Den, contacted his sister for verification and rushed to the location, discovering the horrifying truth.

The inspection was led by Police Major Kittiphong Thepnhu, Chief Investigator of Thung Tako Police station, accompanied by medical officers and rescue volunteers. They found the two-storey house’s owner and Den’s father lying dead with several sharp-cut wounds on his neck, right elbow, and back.
