A man known for his ferocity, who had been on the police’s most-wanted list, was arrested yesterday after 17 years on the run from a homicide case in Satun province. The suspect, previously involved in a nasty public brawl, was detained at his residence in the province’s Lang Suan district.

 

Today, Police Colonel Montri Theskan ordered Police Lieutenant Colonel Phongoanot Chua-kaew and his team of Region 6 police officers to arrest 38 year old Thawatchai, known as Om. Thawatchai was wanted under an arrest warrant issued by the Songkhla Provincial Court on January 16, 2006, for cooperation in a premeditated murder.

 

The case dates back seven years when Om, along with his brother Jakree or Ek, was involved in an incident where they brutally attacked 23 years old Aphisan Ruengsuk with a Spartan sword. The shocking incident occurred in broad daylight on a public street in Singhanakhon district, Songkhla province, near a Provincial Electric Authority office.


The motive was reportedly a past dispute between the two sides. Unfortunately, the brutal attack left Aphisan so severely battered that he succumbed to his injuries, reported KhaoSod.

I have always thought that anyone on the run should have their sentence increased by the same number of years on the run - in this case say 35 years for murder + another 17 for trying to avoid conviction - might stop a few doing the same

Didn't stop 'Tony' and his sister though...
