A 45 year old motorcycle taxi driver was fatally stabbed in Nonthaburi's Bang Kruai district on November 11, following a dispute over his alleged inappropriate behaviour toward another man's wife.

 

The incident was reported to police at 12:30. Officers from Bang Kruai Police Station, accompanied by forensic experts and rescue personnel, arrived at the scene in Soi Bang Kruai-Sai Noi 11. The victim, identified as Sommai Ruenura, was found dead wearing a black long-sleeve shirt, black pants, a mask, and sunglasses. Blood stains were visible on the road, leading to where he lay. Sommai had suffered stab wounds to his left ribcage and left arm.

 

According to witnesses, Sommai and the suspect, Tanaphat Chaitong, lived in the same rented building. Sommai stayed on the second floor, while Tanaphat and his wife lived on the first. Tensions reportedly escalated when Sommai allegedly exposed himself and made suggestive remarks to Tanaphat's wife the previous night. A confrontation occurred around 01:00, but the men separated after the altercation.

 

The following morning, Sommai returned to settle the matter, accompanied by a senior member of their motorcycle taxi group who intended to mediate an apology. However, Sommai reportedly refused to apologise, angering Tanaphat, who then grabbed a knife, leading to a violent confrontation outside. Sommai attempted to flee but collapsed approximately 200 metres from the building.

 

A fellow motorcycle taxi driver, Suriyan, 40, who witnessed Sommai's final moments, described how he found the victim struggling to breathe. "I pulled down his mask to help him breathe, but it was too late," he said.

 

Tanaphat's wife, Supaporn, 27, recounted the initial incident, explaining that Sommai had approached her under the pretense of asking for directions before exposing himself. She informed her husband immediately, which led to their initial argument. Following the stabbing, Tanaphat fled the scene, leaving authorities to launch an investigation.

 

Nonthaburi police have identified Tanaphat as the suspect and are actively working to locate him for questioning and legal proceedings.

A desperate man for sex, but chose a wrong girl and inappropriate way of approach.

Half expected it to be a foreigner, that's the usual par for course

There is a great moral to this story, never expose yourself to anyone in an uninvited manner, much less another man's wife. There are consequences to our actions, this guy found out the hard way. The man's wife had a very sharp retort.

There's also the moral of "Never stab someone to death just for exposing themselves to a loved one".

 

The killing was not necessary and will no doubt have caused a lot of problems for the murderer and his wife, far more than the indecent exposure did.
