A heated domestic dispute in Chon Buri turned fiery when a former military husband allegedly set his ex-wife’s house on fire after a disagreement over a lost military ID card. The incident took place in Bang Saray, Sattahip district, leaving the single-storey home severely damaged.

 

Police were alerted to the fire at 8pm yesterday, December 8. Chaiwat Nemmee, a police officer from Sattahip Police Station, responded promptly to the scene, coordinating with local disaster prevention and mitigation teams from Bang Saray and Kled Kaew municipalities to tackle the blaze.

 

Firefighters battled the flames for over 20 minutes before successfully bringing it under control.

 

The fire originated in the storage room of the house, causing complete destruction of the belongings inside, including clothing, storage cabinets, and electrical appliances. The estimated damage ranges between 50,000 and 100,000 baht.

 

The homeowner, 59 year old Wattana Leesisai recounted the events with visible distress. She explained that after separating from her husband, she found his long-lost military ID card while clearing out the room.

 

 

She had asked someone to return it to him, which apparently led him to mistakenly believe she intended to evict him, reported KhaoSod.

 

As tensions escalated, the former husband arrived at her home, and an argument ensued. During the altercation, he threatened to burn the house before dashing inside.

 

Moments later, flames and smoke emerged from the room, as he fled the scene in a vehicle.

 

Police have documented the incident and are preparing to issue a summons for the ex-husband to be questioned and face legal proceedings.

 

The police are determined to investigate the matter thoroughly to ensure justice is served.

Impulse control doesn't appear to the the Thais' strong suit. Lovely folk until you cross an invisible line.  Where does the rage come from?
