[snoop1130]

 

A deadly family feud over land inheritance escalated into a brutal shooting in front of a house in Nonthaburi, Thailand, resulting in two fatalities. The incident occurred at 9.30am today, January 8, when local police and volunteer rescue workers were dispatched to a violent scene in the Ban Mai district of Bang Yai.

 

The victims were identified as 60 year old Phayup, and 56 year old Phayaow, both found dead near each other. Three bullet casings were discovered at the crime scene.

 

The alleged perpetrator was their nephew, 41 year old Pissit, who fled the scene immediately after the incident.

 

Before the crime occurred around 8am, the two victims had left their house to water their paddy field, which is situated in front of the house where the incident took place. This property belongs to Prayun, the elder brother of both victims and the father of the accused, Pissit.

Two men and two women shouting the insults over the men's shoulders.

At the time of the shooting, Lard, Pissit’s mother, was cooking at the back of the house.

I think Pissit just lost everything... the old Red mist again.

As much as Thai family's are very close, when it comes to money they turn on each other in an instant

Pissit seems a bit pissed off.

This is why we need to be clear, specific and have a will filed correctly in Thailand.  We all need to understand that our relatives may leave or not leave or leave just a portion of property, asset, or money to whoever The Giver decides.  Unfortunately there is usually a lot of I did this work, helped you with something, or entitlement of a son, daughter, wife, husband, etc.  That thinks waiting until after someone is Dead to settle any debts is wise.

 

Sad event, hopefully we can all learn something and do better in the future.
