Five suspects fled Thailand for Cambodia after killing a Taiwanese man and leaving his body in an abandoned restaurant near Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Samut Prakarn province near Bangkok.

 

The dead body of the Taiwanese man, 44 year old Shih Mou Chiang, was discovered in the abandoned restaurant on Suvarnabhumi 4 Road in the Bang Phli district of Samut Prakarn on February 25. Officers discovered blood and brains outside the restaurant and found Shih Mou’s body inside.

 

Shih Mou was seen lying in a pool of blood with two gunshot wounds to his head and the back of his left ear. He was wearing a black T-shirt and long black jeans and had about 3,000 baht in cash in his pocket. He had many tattoos, including a giant and letters of the Japanese alphabet.

A 28 year old Thai man, Dilok Samart, discovered the dead body. He explained that he worked as a cleaner at the airport. He and other workers used the abandoned restaurant every day for their afternoon break. He went there as usual and followed the bloodstains to find Shih Mou’s body.

Police suspected that Shih Mou died about four to six hours before his discovery. They believed that the suspects killed Shih Mou somewhere else and later left his dead body at the scene.

 

Officers checked security cameras at the scene and nearby and discovered a suspicious car, a red Mazda 2 SUV, parked at the scene that morning. Further investigation into the car led police to a suspect’s house in Areeya Daily Village in the Lat Phrao district of Bangkok.

 

Thai woman involved

 

Police raided the house at 9pm that day and found bloodstains in several places in the accommodation. Shih Mou’s motorcycle, a red Ducati, was found parked outside the house. Officers also found 50 grammes of ketamine in the house.

 

A neighbour reported to officers that the house belonged to a Thai national who went to work in Taiwan. A Thai woman aged about 20 years old rented the house and lived there alone. He saw three to four foreign men, suspected to be Chinese nationals, visiting her at the house quite often.

 

According to the neighbour, he saw Shih Mou arrive at the house on his motorcycle at midnight on February 24. In the early hours of February 25, the neighbour heard two gunshots before two foreign men drove the red car out of the house.

 

Police discovered the car in Soi Phut-Jaroon in the Klong Song Tonnoon sub-district, Lat Krabang district, Bangkok. Officers found a bottle of bathroom cleaner, three bottles of white bleach cleaning liquid, a bloody plastic bag, and a bloody cloth. The memory card of the dashcam was removed.

 

According to the police report, four Taiwanese and one Thai were involved in the murder. They were identified as follows:

26 year old Taiwanese man Lin Kwang Yun
25 year old Taiwanese man Cho Yu Fai
42 year old Taiwanese man Wang Kong Teng
33 year old Taiwanese man Su Fong Yeun
22 year old Thai woman Piyanut Thammarat

Suspects flee Thailand

 

The five suspects fled separately after abandoning the car in the Lat Krabang district. They reunited in the Isaan province of Sa Kaeo before crossing the border into Cambodia and staying at a casino in Poipet City. Police reported that they left the casino at 9pm yesterday, February 26, and headed for Phenom Penh.

 

Police admitted that they were unable to determine whether or not the suspects had already left Cambodia. They said they would coordinate with Cambodian authorities to arrest them all.

The Commander of the Provincial Police Region 1, Jirasan Kaewsaengek, reported that the motive of the murder was suspected to be a conflict over illegal business, adultery, or drug smuggling. The deceased, Shih Mou, was suspected of being involved with the call centre scam gang, but further investigation would be carried out to confirm this information.

 

ThaiRath reported that Shih Mou stole a car, a white Toyota Yaris, from his Taiwanese friend in Pattaya on February 24. He drove the stolen car to Bangkok and abandoned it on Ratchadaphisek Road before riding his motorcycle to the suspects’ house. Shih Mou is also on the arrest warrants for theft and gun possession in Taiwan as well.

Stole from the wrong people.  Retribution can be swift. 

 

He won't do it again

[spidermike007]

Was the theft of the car and the murder of the man directly related? If so that's one rather dramatic way to deal with crime.

 

I've been reading about stories of people in the US who have been getting their cars stolen, and broken into, and the trend is increasing dramatically. Some of them are taking some rather extreme measures to avoid this fate. Thankfully this is not a rampant problem here at this point.

Sounds like a professional hit, he got whacked for doing something he shouldn't.

Expensive car.

[steven100]

They were all mixed up in shady practices and dealings,  drugs and illegal business ... no wonder he was eliminated, he probably took more than his share or didn't hand the loot over.

 

The Thai woman is an accessory to murder and heavily involved with the gang,  she will go to jail for the rest of her life.

Cambodian officials are tracking the murderers down as we speak, I expect swift arrests very soon.

[PETERTHEEATER]

Tony's mate Hun Sen will sort this out I'm sure.😋

I don’t think the Thai woman was on an academic track….
