VENGEFUL IRISHMAN SUSPECTED OF SETTING PATTAYA BUNGALOW ON FIRE PIQUED BY WIFE‘S NEW AFFAIR

A Thai woman house owner returned from a dinner-date with a new foreign boyfriend on April 28, 2008, to find her bungalow in Pattaya Park Hill 2 had suffered considerable fire damage. She suspected her jealous Irish husband had torched the house in a fit of pique over her new affair.

Following an alarm call at 00.10am, on April 28, Pattaya Investigator, Pol.Lt.Col. Thanadet Duengtapiyachai, sent a police investigative team and 10 fire engines from Ta-kien Tia Fire Department, to tackle the fire at a bungalow in Moo Baan Pattaya Park Hill 2.

The rapid response squad arrived to find the bungalow's bedroom on fire with flames and smoke pouring out of the window. Fire fighters took about 10 minutes to extinguish the fire. Fortunately, nobody was injured as the three temporary residents had escaped the flames previously. Officers examined the bedroom and found the contents totally burned out, in addition to fire damage in other parts of the house, amounting all told to an estimated cost of Bt 300,000.

Miss Uraiwan Busaba (29), the house owner, told police that she had gone out for dinner with her new foreign boyfriend, leaving her three relatives in the house. She said that her Irish husband, Mr. William Francis Manuel, had originally given her the money to buy the house. Recently, however, she'd had a dispute with her husband and wanted to arrange a separation.

Miss Uraiwan told police that her relatives, who were staying in the bungalow at the time, told her that at the start of the fire her husband had been in the house. However, shortly after, he had run out of the house, ignoring the fire. She suspected that her vengeful husband could well have been the one who set the house on fire in retaliation for her having gone out for dinner with another foreign boyfriend. Accordingly, police will search for Miss Uraiwan's husband, who is currently missing, to further investigate the real cause of the fire.

Hmm, he sets fire to the place with three people in it and expects to get away with it. I guess the heat of the moment, pun intended, clouded his judgement.

Arson is a serious crime in LOS

[Westerner]

Another stupid foreigner who bought a house in his girlfriend's name When will they ever learn.

[britmaveric]

Out with a new bf?? Hmmm get a divorce would be far better way of doing things.

[kurgen]

He owns the house and she owns the land?

[jonniebkk]

Apparently a case of "[farang] monkey see [farang] monkey do" No wonder so many of the local bar lasses call out to the "darklings" as they walk by.

[britmaveric]

Never been called a monkey arse before!! Only handsum man

I say good on him. dam_n the consequences. The only thing that's relevant is that she doesn't

get the house and her relatives have to pay for their own room for a change. Now, taking a page

from the Thais, it would be a good time to flee. Shouldn't have put it in her name in the first place.

Manuel?

Fawlty towers!

Give the guy a break ... He was in a fit of Pique

Naka.

[Bangyai]

Maybe he should have locked the relatives in and then fled to the airport.

This is the start of a great trend. Now, I am not saying that fire is the answer. Perhaps, ramming a truck into the front door or dropping construction equipment into the living room or something. What a fabulous way to fight back!! However, I suggest doing the damage when the house is empty. No need to hurt the family and village idiots inside. The objective is to destroy the house, not the people inside.

This way, nobody gets the house in the divorce!! The new farang boyfriend can rebuild the house on the precious 'LAND' that the Thai girlfriend owns in her name. When the new boyfriend gets kicked out of the new house, then he can demolish the structure and then the next fool can rebuild.
