A horrific murder has shocked the community in Ang Thong Province, as a 30-year-old woman was found stabbed to death in her rental room with over 20 stab wounds. Her father, who had been unable to contact her, made the gruesome discovery after breaking into the locked room.

 

On December 13, at 12:30 Police Sub-Lieutenant Kratep Chantranapaporn, Deputy Inspector of Muang Ang Thong Police Station, received a report of a fatal stabbing at a single-story row of rooms in Village No. 2, Pa Ngiew Subdistrict, Muang District, Ang Thong Province. Upon receiving the report, he immediately notified Police Colonel Pojanakorn Kanjina, Superintendent of Muang Ang Thong Police Station, and rushed to the scene with investigators, forensic officers, and medical personnel from Ang Thong Hospital.

 

At the scene, inside Room 10, the lifeless body of Ms. Patamaporn 30, was found lying near the bathroom. She had suffered over 20 stab wounds to her neck, face, torso, and arms. A knife approximately 30 centimetres long was discovered in the bathroom sink. Authorities estimate she had been dead for less than two hours.

 

The room showed signs of a violent struggle, with scattered belongings and an overturned fan. Outside the rental unit, police found a Toyota Yaris car with a deflated rear-left tyre.

 

Ms. Patamawadee, the victim's sister, stated that she had been unable to contact her sister for two days. The last conversation they had was on the evening of December 11. After failing to reach her sister, she informed their parents, who went to check on her at the rental room and discovered her body.

 

Mr. Thongchai, 59, the victim's father, recounted that Ms. Patamaporn had been living in the rental room, while her sister-in-law and husband, had been working in Chonburi Province for several days. Ms. Patamaporn had been staying alone for 2-3 days before losing contact. Upon arrival, he found the room locked but spotted his daughter's body through the window. Breaking the lock with a stone, he was devastated to find her stabbed to death. Ms. Patamaporn had been working at an office in Ang Thong's town market. Her two children were living with her parents.

 

A neighbour, Mr. Piak, 60, a nearby auto repairman, revealed that he had heard a man and woman arguing shortly before the police arrived and discovered the murder.

 

Police have identified a suspect, known as Boy Taladpla, who is believed to be a close male acquaintance of the victim. Investigators are actively pursuing the individual and are working to bring him in for questioning as part of the ongoing investigation.
