webfact Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 A violent altercation in Bangkok’s Sukhumvit area led to the death of a 53 year old Myanmar businessman in the early hours of this morning. The incident occurred at 1.30am today, February 14, in a room in a Sukhumvit Soi 4 mansion, where the victim, Kayo Seya, was found with multiple injuries and significant blood loss. The businessman was reportedly involved in a foreign currency exchange business with two associates, William and John, a Scottish man. During a heated dispute, the victim’s mother attempted to intervene and was knocked unconscious. When she regained consciousness, she discovered her son had been fatally injured. Additionally, it was reported that 5 million baht in cash was missing from the room. The police and forensic teams are investigating the crime scene and seized a mysterious suitcase and the safe purchased for black money transactions. Closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage is being reviewed to track down the two suspects, with immigration officials alerted to prevent their escape. The scene at the 23rd-floor apartment was grim, with the victim lying amidst a pool of blood, his injuries indicating a brutal attack. Police, forensic experts, and medical examiners from Chulalongkorn Hospital immediately swarmed the site to gather evidence and piece together the events leading to Seya’s death, reported KhaoSod. by Nattapong Westwood Picture courtesy of KhaoSod Full story: The Thaiger 2024-02-14 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

webfact Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 Police seeking two Scots in connection with Myanmar businessman’s murder Police are looking for two Scottish men, accused by a Myanmar woman of killing her son and robbing him of about 5 million baht in cash at an apartment on Bangkok’s Sukhumvit Soi 4 on Tuesday night. The woman, who was also assaulted, told Lumpini police that her son and the two Scots were partners in a money exchange business. She claimed that the pair came to her son’s apartment, located on the 23rd floor, and attacked both of them, knocking her unconscious. She said that, when she woke up, she found her son was already dead in a pool of blood on the floor. She also claims that about five million baht in cash, stored in a safe, had gone. Lumpini police said they are trying to obtain CCTV footage from the apartment building and the surrounding area before they can seek warrants for the arrests of the suspects. Police also said that they are yet to determine the motive of the alleged murder.

Popular Post renaissanc Posted February 14 Popular Post Share Posted February 14 1. If you're a foreigner in Thailand, the Police will catch you eventually, so it's silly to rob, steal, and kill here. 2. I watch the Thai news at midday and see news about this and that person having been murdered every day. I wonder why people feel that they have to kill someone to feel better. The Police will know who the suspects are and you'll simply be on the run forever afterwards until eventually you're caught and you spend 10, 15, 20+ years in a horrible jail. Then when you leave prison, what do you do? Nobody will want to know you, help you, or trust you. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have to move fast straight to Cambodia crossing. Taking a risk going through immigration because computers move alot faster. They could bribe someone to take them over the border but that can take time. Laying low in BKK probably the way to go. I reckon they'll get clipped. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
