Thai Man Admits to Murdering Friend Due to Love Rivalry

[snoop1130]

 

A man from Thailand, Rung, confessed to killing his friend, Yodrak, because of a dispute over a love interest. Yodrak's body was found dumped in a pond in Nakhon Sawan province.

 

Yodrak's 75-year-old mother, Prayong, reported him missing on July 18 when she was unsure of his whereabouts. She then sought guidance from a fortune teller, who suggested that Yodrak's body might be in a neighborhood pond. Prayong requested assistance from volunteer divers who discovered Yodrak's body on July 25. It was tethered to a cart filled with bricks and stones and was starting to decompose by the time of its discovery.

 

Rung, a 54-year-old friend of Yodrak, emerged as the main suspect after the police interrogated Yodrak's friends. It was found that they were both attracted to the same woman, which led to an argument and conflict between them. Rung confessed to killing Yodrak during an altercation at Yodrak's home. In his confession, he revealed that he assaulted Yodrak with a hard object, killed him, then dumped his body in the pond where it was later found.

 

 

Rung also revealed that when Yodrak's body floated to the surface of the pond, he repeatedly stabbed it, hoping it would sink. When this did not work, he added heavy objects to weigh the body down.

 

The police took Rung back to the scene to recreate the act on the previous day. He is facing several charges, including intentional murder, which carries a sentence of 15-20 years to life imprisonment or even a death penalty according to Section 288 of the Thai Criminal Law. He's also charged under Section 366/3 of the Criminal Law for tampering with a body, which could result in up to three years in prison, a fine of 60,000 baht, or both.

 

All this may be compounded by reports from Channel 3 and Amarin TV suggesting that Rung struggles with mental health issues, which might have influenced his violent actions.

A man from Thailand……lol this site’s standard of journalism is getting poorer and poorer.

Unfortunately he confessed so his time will probably be cut in half. Crazy Thai laws.
