POLICE have found a knife and blood stains in the Koh Phangan hotel room of a Spanish man who is a suspect in the murder and dismemberment of a Colombian anesthesiologist whose body parts were found at a garbage dump on the island, Naewna newspaper said this evening (Aug. 4).

 

National Police Chief Pol. Gen. Damrongsak Kittipraphat had ordered Deputy National Police Chief Pol. Lt. Gen. Surachate Hakparn, whose nickname is Big Joke, and the head of Police Region 8 Pol.Lt.Gen.Surapong Thanomjit to quickly solve this case because the grisly murder had shaken both local people and tourists.

 

They have questioned a suspect, Mr. Daniel (surname withheld), 29, from Spain as he was the one who reported to Koh Phangan police that his friend, Mr. Edwin (surname withheld), 44, from Colombia was missing.

 

Police said their investigation revealed that the suspect had bought an eight-inch chopping knife, a pair of rubber gloves, a sponge, a stainless steel scrubber,  detergent and large garbage bags from a convenience store on Tuesday evening (Aug. 1).

One alleged murder does not make him a serial killer.

Obviously there would be more gruesome dismemberments. They need to increase the amount tourists show in the bank to 800,000 baht. Good guys in, bad guys out.

Clever lad.

He (probably) chopped up his friend. Then runs to the BIB and meanwhile leaves the gruesome tools of his trade all over his apartment.

What a prat. ( how do you say this in Spanish.. ????)

So, give us a clue, which is which, Mr Naewna from, I guess, Thailand!???

These bad guys are not at all very bright. 

The most surprising thing to me is this did not happen on Koh Tao..

They will be able to make a tv series about him soon: "The Investigations Of Big Joke."

From the full story; "..A human pelvic bone, with male genitalia was found in a garbage bag with the price tag attached at a rubbish dump.''

 It was the bag, with the price tag, and not the genitalia, I hope. ????

I am in Colombia now, sounds like something that would happen here not in Thailand...  

Times are a changing...  People in Colombia hang with Spain.  Lots of Colombians go to Spain to live. Lots of Mexicans also. 

What is going on over there. Reading the news on here is like picking up the paper in The US where I live.
