I've known Mr Yamada for many years. I've just heard that he was having domestic problems and just had a large amount of money stolen from his safe at home.

I hope they catch the culprit!

RIP Mr Yamada.

Information within the media alludes to the Thai wife of Mr Yamada confessing to the murder, and has apparantly been paraded in front of the media.

Further media reports claim that the Police are still seeking two accomplices to the murder, one of which may be the wife's boyfriend.

What an absolutely shocking way to go, and what vile, nasty person could even contemplate doing this to another human?

Scum.

It amazes me how Many Thai wifes think they can get away with Murder,Do they not think that nobody will suspect them , Its like they are mentally challenged and do not think about the consequences.Some times there action looks like its out of an Inspector Cluso plot.,

Not only murder but the most simplistic plot imaginable.. Lets hit him with a stick and then burn him.. No one will ever work that out.

Pure genius at work.

Thing is, they're prepared to do a couple of years "time" for the financial reward (stolen money, life insurance etc) afterwards.

Unless they get skanked during their time in stir.

Thai woman charged with murdering Japanese man

BANGKOK — A Thai woman has been charged with murdering a 75-year-old Japanese man who was reported missing by his golfing partner four days ago on the southern resort island of Phuket, local police said Thursday.

They also said a warrant has been issued for a Thai man suspected of being the woman’s accomplice.

Police suspect that a skeleton found in a burned-out car left near a rubber plantation in the southern part of Phuket is that of Yukiho Yamada, since the car in which it was found belonged to him.

A forensic examination of the skeleton began Wednesday.

Thabthim Saehak, 50, was questioned for hours before being formally charged with murder Wednesday night.

A local court issued a warrant for the arrest of Suwit Maensri, 22, who is said to have been working for Thabthim at her car care service center in Phuket and been in love with her.

Thabthim claimed that Yamada wed her last year but she is now in love with Suwit.

The head of Phuket’s Chalong Police Station said police believe the incident ‘‘is a homicide related to love affairs.’‘

Yamada’s car was discovered ablaze about 4 a.m. Wednesday, but it was burned out by the time firefighters reached the scene, hampering identification of the body found inside it.
