The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) has arrested a key suspect involved in the fatal shooting of a well-known auto mechanic, “Chang Yu,” in a shocking attack that occurred at his garage in Soi Phatthanakan 32, Bangkok.

 

The arrest was made by the Marine Police Division (Bureau of Marine Police), a unit under the CIB, following months of investigation into the high-profile case that has drawn significant public attention.

 

The incident dates back to 8 May, around 22:30 when Mr. Hassan and several accomplices arrived at Chang Yu’s garage on motorcycles. An argument broke out between them and the victims, Chang Yu (Mr. Sukeeplee, nickname) and Mr. Adul. After the confrontation, the parties initially dispersed.

 

However, the conflict quickly escalated. Mr. Hassan and his group regrouped near a Bangchak petrol station on Soi Phatthanakan 27. Although police intervened at that stage, the group later reassembled at a car park in Soi Phatthanakan 44, this time with faces covered by balaclavas, an indication of premeditated violence.

 

The group then returned to the garage, where they physically assaulted Chang Yu before one of the attackers opened fire, discharging approximately five rounds. Bullets struck vital organs, killing him instantly at the scene. Mr. Adul was also injured, having sustained a gunshot wound to the neck.

 

Subsequent investigations led police to identify and issue arrest warrants for 13 suspects believed to be involved. One of them, Mr. Sulaiman, was tracked to the area around Napradu Railway Station in Kok Pho District, Pattani Province. Officers moved in and apprehended the suspect, reading him his rights before transferring him to Khlong Tan Police Station for legal proceedings.

 

Further investigations suggest that Mr. Sulaiman may also be linked to security-related incidents in Thailand’s Deep South. Authorities are actively pursuing leads to expand the investigation.
