SPURNED GERMAN BAR-OWNER SLASHES PARTNER'S NECK IN PATTAYA BAR

The vindictive German co-owner of a Pattaya bar, outraged that his Thai partner had rejected him, sought vengeance, on 3 June 2009, by going to her new place of work, a beer bar in Soi 6, and slashing her neck in full view of customers and staff. He escaped immediately afterwards and police are still searching for him

At 01.30 am, on 3 June, Pol. Lt. Col. Suppachai Puikumkaew, Pattaya Police Investigator was notified that a German national had slashed a Thai woman's neck at the Love Pub Beer Bar, located at 437/35 Moo. 9, Soi 6, Pattaya Second Road. A police team was sent immediately to investigate.

Arriving at the bar, the police found a crowd of onlookers, both Thai and foreigners, gathered around. The victim, Miss. Sairoong Boonsomtop, [27], a waitress at the bar, had a 20 cm.-wide wound on her neck. The heavily bleeding wound was so deep that it had nearly reached her trachea. She was rushed to Pattaya International Hospital.

Questioning Mrs. Kanokwan Srisongkram, [46], another waitress at the bar, police learnt that Miss Sairoong had just started working at the bar, that being her first day. Mrs. Kanokwan further related that Miss Sairoong had told her that Miss Sairoong's partner, Mr. Harry, was a wife-abuser. He had apparently been in the habit of frequently beating her up until she could stand it no longer. She had then told him that she wanted to end their relationship and she started working at the bar. Mrs. Kanokwan said that Miss Sairoong had told her that Mr. Harry had repeatedly sent her threatening messages on the day of the incident.

The actual attack happened while Miss Sairoong was playing snooker with a foreign customer in the bar. Mr. Harry had apparently approached her from behind, held her in a neck lock and then slashed her neck with a knife, splashing blood everywhere right in front of everybody. Harry had apparently then run away to the end of the soi, caught a motorbike taxi and sped away.

Questioning Miss Sairoong's friends, police were told that Mr. Harry was the co-owner of the Poppy Beer Bar in Pattaya Soi 6. He was apparently a jealous individual who was always drunk.

Police then questioned the motorbike taxi driver who had taken Mr. Harry away from the incident. He said that had taken his customer to the beginning of Naklua Soi 27 where he had disappeared down the soi.

Initially, the police searched Room no. 307, on the Third Floor of Roi Lung Apartments, Mr. Harry's residence, but he had escaped before the police arrived. In the room, police found the passport of a Mr. Erik Zodrow, [38], a German national, which was held as evidence. The police will continue their search for the suspect and arrest him as soon as possible.

I must admit Ive felt like doing similar things to ladies that have repaid me helping them by stealing from me, and I have seen plenty of Thai ladies attacking people with knives out of jealousy, so not meaning to justify his actions at all but as long as he doesnt attack me Im not going to get worked up about it

Just go to show you cant believe everything you see in films. A 20cm cut is 8 inches which is a pretty big cut across the throat. In every film I have ever watched this results in instant death (usually silently which is why the guy didnt use a gun). So if you intend to murder someone at least do your homework on Wikipedia or something. Incidentally there is another interesting piece of advice contained within these reports. If you receive constant death threats (I would assume more than one) in any given day you are best advised to call the police for assistance.

And on this second bit of advice I speak from some experience.

These actions are inexcusable and can NEVER be justified.

I dont know how you can compare getting ones throat slit to some petty thieving. The circumstances leading up to the incident are irrelevant. He actions are simply inexcusable.

Yeah, with his hands tied behind his back!!

Definatly suicide then,!

[SMEEERE]

Bar girl, jealousy, drunken kraut,Quality couple,..but actually sounds like role reversal,isnt it usually the tarts that are jealous,? however hes a violent tw@t and lets hope justice is served one way or another,.

If that happens

Will it get judged as just another Pattaya 'suicide' ?

I agree, but then again so where the actions of the lady that slashed a 20cm slit down the crutch of my friends trousers with a stanly knife on beach road, or the married woman that lunged at me with a knife because she thought I looked at another woman, fortunately in both cases they missed, but they were women attacking men rather then a man attacking a woman so we see that as humour rather then unjustifiable

What's with all the calls for the death penalty here? This was attempted murder, not murder. In either case, the death penalty is never OK, only backwards, uncivilized countries like Saudi, Iran and the USA use it.

Politik aside, I'll infuriate even more TV members by playing devil's advocate here by saying that perhaps this attack was justified. Thai bar women are known to cheat, steal, and con - and it's always a farang that loses in these cases - perhaps someone finally fought back and gave the bìtçh exactly what she deserved. We'll never know the whole story or the reasons from biased newspaper reports - only Mr. Harry and Mrs. Sairoong know the full story.

Strange how all those proffesing to be disgusted by this act of violence seek to go one step further by killing the kraut.

Then again, I understand in a profound way, in that I think everyone who would like to kill another human because of a few lines they read in a post should be killed
