churchill Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 German Engineer Killed By Bomb In Chon Buri CHONBURI: -- The torn-apart body of a German engineer was found in rubber plantation in Banglamung district here Friday morning, police said. Police said the remains of Uwe Keienburt, 45, who was an engineer of a real estate company, was found by a rubber tapper in the morning. Police said the bomb appeared to be C4 explosives tied to the body of the man, whose BMW car was found left about 500 away. Police said the killer used a remote control to detonate the bomb that torn his body into pieces. His wife, Araya, 40, told police that the German engineer left their house on Soi Sukhumvit 24 at 9 am on Thursday and disappeared. She said her husband had conflicts with a group of foreign real estate developers and he sued to receive a death threat. -- The Nation 21/08/09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtoad Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Certainly one of the more unpleasant stories in the recent weeks. For a change it looks like the BIB have ruled out suicide pretty quick. Condolences to friends and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soupdragon Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Blowing him up with military grade explosives isn't exactly your average bump off the competition with a .38 revolver.

Anybody knows more details about the dispute? How much is involved? There are two reasons for this question. a) Everybody says life is cheap in Thailand. I want to know, how cheap? I could also try to figure out whether I qualify for C4 or .38. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasreeve17 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 hardcore... strapped with c4 with a remote trigger.how doesn't that warrant a massive search and crack down. Agree 100%. If crimes like this go uninvestigated or are just accepted ('well it happens in the US ') then our society is beyond farked... Whoever committed this crime (If it wan't suicide; I don't know.) needs to be caught and sentenced extremely harshly; life, meaning life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
