PHUKET: -- The results of DNA comparisons have confirmed that the body found buried under a villa on Koh Samui on April 21 is that of missing Hungarian multi-millionaire Laszlo Csapai, who went missing two years ago.

The villa belongs to Hungarian-Israeli citizen Moshe David, already locked up in Phuket awaiting trial for the murder of another Hungarian businessman, Peter Reisz, at the end of November.

Speaking to The Phuket News today, Surat Thani Provincial Police Commander Maj Gen Kiattipong Khaosum-ang today confirmed, “I was told the result last week. The DNA from the skeleton and a sample taken from Mr Csapai’s mother match.

“The next step will be for investigators from Bophut to travel to Hungary to interview a witness there. We asked permission for this from the National Police Headquarters in Bangkok today. We want to do it as soon as possible.”

The witness he referred to is Mata Isawan, interviewed in Hungary by private investigator Ferenc Chilko, who was hired by Mr Csapai’s family to find the missing millionaire.

Isawan admitted to helping David bury the body, and told Mr Chilko where it could be found.

Phuket murder trail leads to Hungary
Phuket Gazette -

PHUKET: Royal Thai Police investigating the murder of 39-year-old Hungarian businessman Laszlo Csapai may travel to Hungary to question a key witness, the Phuket Gazette has confirmed.

The witness, currently jailed in Hungary, claims he saw prime suspect Moshe David murder Mr Csapai and bury the body, Surat Thani Provincial Police Commander Kiattipong Khaosum-ang explained.

Following the witness’ testimony, Thai police searched Mr David’s villa in Bophut, Samui, where they found a human skeleton buried under the house – right where the witness said it would be.

The Institute of Forensic Medicine at Police General Hospital in Bangkok last week confirmed through DNA matching that the bones were those of the missing millionaire Mr Csapai, a former business partner of Mr David.

“I have sent a request to Royal Thai Police headquarters [in Bangkok] asking for advice on our next step in the investigation. We will travel to Hungary to question the witness if we need to,” Maj Gen Kiattipong explained.

Prime suspect Moshe David is a dual national with both Israeli and Hungarian citizenship. His Hungarian passport names him as Gabor Nemeth.

Mr David was arrested in Bangkok on December 4 for the alleged murder of Peter Reisz, also a Hungarian national who moved from Samui to Phuket, reportedly in fear for his life.

Mr David confessed to killing Mr Reisz in a fit of rage and dumping his body in a forest in Kathu. He denied the charge of murder
