ALFREDO Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Austrian media report that Alfred H. 55 had been killed in Udon Thani province. (I cannot post link, google with the words -Alfred H.Udon Thani Drama erschlagen or Mod. Please help) Alfred H. 55 year Austrian had invested in a farm with his girlfriends family. Three weeks ago he came to TH, now beginning of the week a discussion regarding the investment envolved. One of the family members took an ax? and killed Alfred H. It seems that the girlfriend sided with him and got also killed. The killer than should have hanged himself later, that is not verified, but a friend, a retired Policeman in Austria told me so. He was stunned by that story, because I have the same initials, Alfred H. Nearly same age and stay in Udon Thani province. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckarooBanzai Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 A translated post: http://www.oe24.at/oesterreich/chronik/wien/Drama-in-Thailand-Wiener-ermordet/21484542 Three weeks ago the 55-year-old former branch manager of a shoe store chain was with his girlfriend (40) flew to Thailand - in the coming days, even his body is returned to Vienna. The Foreign Office, which had the tragic death of Alfred H. on Monday to confirm to AUSTRIA, cares now about relatives in Austria - two adult children and ex-wife of the dropout. Controversy over the plantation. This much is currently on the tragic events in Udon Thani known: Alfred H. is said to have bought there in the plantation of the family of his girlfriend. Furthermore, it should have come after his arrival to a violent and full-scale argument: the Wiener and his Thai mistress were slain by a family member with an ax. Then, offenders have even sent in which he hanged himself. The security authorities in Thailand are still investigating. (mic, Kor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BothellThai Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 I have been searching the internet for weeks about this story as it happened only a few hundred meters from the in-laws house and this is the first thing about it. Just last April the wife I spent a couple of hours at her house sharing some drinks and looking at photos. She also leaves behind a young daughter along with the older daughter whose husband/boyfriend committed the murders. It is so sad. May they Rest in Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. Don't be ridiculous, Alfredo. It's not terribly newsworthy....yet tragic as it might be. People are dying everyday.

ALFREDO Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 Ok, but please, can you tell me than, why the accidental death of one Lao girl struck by a car made such tsunami like waves of posters in the News forum? Because it was a Porsche car? Or because the girl was cut in two pieces? Or because of both of above and it was as -News- delivered to many of Thaivisas members and posted in News forum. Many people die, day by day on Thairoads. So what the fuss about the mentioned Porsche accident, still an accident. But, not so many Falangs get killed, including theire Thai girlfriend by the womans family(member) as a special THANK YOU for the investment they made for the family in land and more. People should realize that. Without investment he would maybe have lost the GF, but he would, with a good chance still live. Conclusion, not invest.

ALFREDO Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 Compare - News desk. Porsche accidential death of Lao girl, 504 posts Just new, Two Swedes electrocuted in Krabi (In Newsdesk, not South- Krabi Forum) 24 Posts since 16:24 Enough mentioned.

ALFREDO Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 Little more, As you see with the -Two Swedes electrocuted in Krabi- such things are worth to be reported in News. If my poor Austrian, would have been a Swede, or a country, where English is the mothertongue, than the Mods would have seen that information in the english media, recognized it and posted it in News. But, it looks like, that incident was only published in German, so the dilemma. And I, mistakenly posted it wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they are much more recognized with clicks and postings, ten fold. Regards Alfred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeMock Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 A foreigner and his partner is murdered in Thailand and the mods say it is not newsworthy? Get off the grass or what ever it is you are smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somrak Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 A foreigner and his partner is murdered in Thailand and the mods say it is not newsworthy? A lot of foreigners get killd in the last years in the same situations. But i did never read something that the killers get behin bars. We are only farangs and Thailand gives us sadly still not the same protection as orderd in intern. agreements . . Shame on Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannarebirth Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) One never knows when reading a Thai news story if they have received even a single fact. If any of the claims made in this story are fact, it is simply horrible. RIP this man and his Thai mate. Go to Hell, to the barbarians that dispatched them. Really, really sad.

mackayae Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Sad story. This incident received little, if any, coverage in UD province. I wonder in which Amphur this incident occurred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostWithin Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Very sad, hopefully the animal that did it (the daughter in laws boyfriend, it sounds like) gets what is coming to him for this - a Thai National was also killed, so the law may prevail. Of note, I noticed on my last trip that I was treated with a little more hesitancy and skepticism as a Farang than I have been previously. I started my trips through Thailand by visiting Udon Thani before any of the big bar complexes existed, and the City was very much off the radar in a Foreigner sense of a place to visit. Unfortunately certain types of businesses and activities will attract certain types of Foreigners, some of which have ruined the reputation for those of us looking for a getaway from the throngs of agressive wester culture. Again, RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
