Police questioned a Thai woman and her male friend after she was suspected of killing her former mother-in-law with a poisoned soft drink in the Isaan province of Udon Thani.

 

The 54 year old woman, Sarinee, died on July 1 after drinking a green mixed fruit soft drink left outside her home in Udon Thani. Her husband and son found her lying with foam around her mouth at about 11.30pm on the day of the incident.

 

Sarinee’s son, 37 year old Supachai, also drank the soft drink. Supachai felt unwell and vomited but he survived because he had only taken a sip of the beverage.

 

Supachai told officers from the Nong Wua So Police Station that he suspected his ex-wife, 34 year old Monruedee, was responsible for the murder.

 

Supachai disclosed that he and his ex-wife had argued many times because she did not work or help around the house. She would often disappear for days without informing him of her whereabouts.

 

 

According to Supachai, his ex-wife and mother also argued frequently because his ex-wife was unemployed and did not contribute to the household. However, they would later forgive each other, and his ex-wife always maintained that she was not angry towards his mother.

 

Supachai revealed that Sarinee and Monruedee had argued two weeks before the incident. Sarinee criticised Monruedee for being useless and almost kicked her in the face. Sarinee warned Monruedee not to repeat her behaviour or she would be attacked. Monruedee left the house after the argument and did not return.

 

Channel 3 reported that police tested the remaining soft drink for toxic substances and found it contaminated with weedkiller.

 

Further investigation showed that the drink was distributed from the Non Wai sub-district, Nong Wua So district, Udon Thani, which is near Monruedee’s house. However, as of now, there is no evidence confirming that she was the murderer.

 

Monruedee and her male friend, Phitsanu, were summoned to the police station today, July 5, for questioning. The details of the questioning have not yet been revealed.

Don't drink random liquids that turn up outside your house...
