Murder suspect escapes from jail

By The Nation on Sunday

AYUTTHAYA: -- A murder suspect, detained at a police station in Sam Khok, Ayutthaya, escaped early yesterday morning when the policeman on night duty reportedly dozed off.

The sub-lieutenant accused of laxity said the 23-year-old Thaweesuk Arngbua, who was arrested on March 4 for murder, was in the jail when he had last checked.

He said he dozed off and was later woken up by another officer who said the suspect had fled. They found a blue shirt in Thaweesuk's cell and one of the iron bars had been sawed off.

I think it would be a good idea to check the sleepy officer's bank account for an unusual deposit.
