Drunk daughter sets fire to Mother in Isaan after sobriety plea

[snoop1130]

 

A drunk woman set fire to her 73 year old mother at a house in the Nong Hong district in Isaan province of Buriram after her mum urged her and her husband to stop drinking.

 

The victim, 73 year old Preeda, revealed to Nong Hong District Office authorities that her 40 year old daughter, La, was the perpetrator. La poured gasoline over her body and set her ablaze on Tuesday, September 5. She ran out of the house and jumped into a small canal nearby to extinguish the flames before seeking assistance from an abbot.

 

District officials yesterday visited the community to question witnesses to place charges against La.

 

The abbot, Thongchai Kittitaro, revealed to officers that he heard a woman screaming for help in front of his accommodation and rushed out to check. He saw Preeda sitting on her knees and crying for help.

 

Thonchai said the scorched wounds covered Preeda’s back, face, and arms. He then delivered her to the hospital and learned from her that La set fire to her.

Utterly subhuman behavior.....   I'm well and truly with the 'hang-em-high' crowd on this one.

I agree, so utterly.  Utterly utterly, in fact.

A bit more information about the condition of the mother would have been appreciated.

A drunk pyromaniac doesn't like to be told to stop drinking, her mother knows that now.

They returned back home six months ago because they became unemployed , that was the reason for going back home , they could have found other jobs "back home" . Could be doing seasonal work or other bits and pieces for work

No, my friend has her own salon and booth kids work at the Hilton and got their own two-story house in a gated community and as far as I know it is paid for.

In many cases like this mum would still be subsidizing the drinking…it’s often the Thai way I’m afraid to avoid family conflict…poor old girl to end up like this

[Deserted]

What a nasty piece of work.
