A 33-year-old man was found dead on the side of Kha Rai Road in Krathum Baen district, Samut Sakhon, shortly after posting a cryptic message on Facebook that read, “This ends the village problem.”

 

The body of the man, known only as “Auan”, was discovered early Sunday morning, 22 June, with severe head injuries and blood covering his face. He was found lying near a shattered beer bottle, with another intact bottle beside him. He was wearing a green long-sleeved t-shirt with the words “Yee Toong Sing” printed on the front, alongside a phone number and a Facebook handle.

 

Police from Krathum Baen Police Station were alerted to the scene after a passing ice delivery driver spotted the body and called emergency services. Officers arrived with forensic investigators, rescue volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation and hospital staff from Krathum Baen Hospital.

 

The body was located near a small convenience store and gas shop, not far from the local subdistrict administrative office. A blue Yamaha motorcycle, believed to belong to the deceased, was found parked across the road in front of the shop.

 

Auan’s fatal injuries appear to have been caused by a blunt object striking his head. Authorities have yet to determine the motive or identify any suspects. No eyewitnesses have come forward, and no one has admitted to seeing the incident unfold.

 

Shortly before his death, at around 01:00, the victim posted a photo on Facebook under the handle “Yee Toong Sing.” The image shows him with a young man, arms around each other, beside a roadside with a green beer bottle in view. The caption read: “This ends the village problem.”

 

The Facebook post has since received comments from concerned friends and acquaintances, some of whom appear to have learned of his death through the news. One comment read: “Who’s his relative? Please contact me, he’s been attacked.”

 

Police are reviewing CCTV footage from the surrounding area in an effort to identify the assailant. Meanwhile, the body has been sent to Siriraj Hospital’s forensic unit for a post-mortem examination.

 

Authorities have urged anyone with information about the incident or the individuals involved to come forward immediately.
