Nothing to see here....husband takes the car out for a drive and still hasn't returned after 7 (or 8??) days and this isn't seen as abnormal behaviour by the Mrs?

I guess there are very few tall buildings to fall off in SiSaket.

She said that he was missing for about 7 to 8 days.

Did she report him/the car missing, and more to the point, she's his wife, surely she'd know exactly how many days he'd been missing, I don't normally get involved in who dunnit but if I was a police officer on the case....mmmmm

Poor guy. Hope justice is served. Better yet, hope he shows up hungover and able to patch things up with the Mrs...

Missing for over a week. I don't know about anyone else and maybe I worry to much but if someone I loved was only a few hours late returning home I would definitely be worried sick. I would definitely be making a missing person report after 24 hours.

If this is "Thainess" (the not giving a shit about your HUSBAND that you love and care for and share a life with that's been missing for 7 or 8 days), then I want no part of it. It stinks.

All too familiar.

Interview the "boyfriend" and relatives!

In all fairness of "Thainess" up to now it's a pretty vague report on happenings but my first thoughts on reading the article made me jump to a conclusion that I wouldn't normally take, I joined the "who dunnit club", maybe I'm premature in my thoughts, time will tell but I hope the guy's safe and sound...

Missing for a week and nothing reported.....strangeeeee.....everything smells PUU PALA......

A photo of the guy might help.

Maybe someone has spotted him somewhere.

Seems a really dodgy story though, and the car looks abandoned.

Taking "dip your headlights" to new levels.

Interview the "boyfriend" and relatives!

i wonder if there's anything left in his bank account both personal and business if he had one and of course let's not forget any life insurance.

Surely Mr Walton had a friend or two in the area? Leaving the car in a muddy hole and locked up seems odd. No traces, foot prints, yes, I suppose heavy rain eliminated them too.

I'll leave the intrepid Thai police to find him.

I am sure that the BIB would be conducting an extensive search of the area where the car was located especially as he has been missing for over a week. The area would be considered a crime scene until such time further info comes to light to deem it otherwise.

I am guessing beamed up by a UFO, well it will be as

good as all the other theories, until he is found.

... who was the husband of Mrs...

I hope the guy is OK, but my point was that if you "care" for someone and they went missing, would you go 7 or 8 days and NOT do something about it? This is her husband for crying out loud and she wasn't even sure how long he'd been missing? <deleted>!

Actually, I feel really bad for the guy. I hope he's OK but there sure is a worry and it doesn't pass the smell test yet.

"police found documents that belonged to 60 year-old Derek Wallton, who was the husband of Mrs. Luksami Wallton"

Sounds like they already know what happened.... .

agreed, if my whereabouts are not accounted for for more than about 30 minutes the missus has the search and dismember rescue party out looking for me.

I'm not sure i would want to patch up, other than in the medical sense, with a wife that didn't bother about me being missing for a week or so unless i had a habit of going walkabout.

The Fiesta likely ended up in the pond due to the rubbish gearbox.

There is very little doubt as to what has happened here. Remember boys, always be worth more alive than dead.

Co-incidence?

A week ago a very confused english speaking man appeared at a shop in a town to the south of Sisaket asking for assistance to get to Sisaket to meet up with a teacher friend there. He was in the company of a helpful Thai man who found him wandering along the road.

The man claimed he had run out of petrol and had no money to buy fuel. He claimed his wife had been cheating with many men and gambled his money. He didn't have the phone number or address of his teacher friend as he said he had used his house phone to call the friend the previous night.

He was directed to the local police to ask for a ride to Sisaket. The local police have been known to help in in situations like this previously.

A 60 year old Briton living in a backwater province in isan with a ' rent a wife ' he either picked up in a bar or met over a dating site.

Ask one of her minor Thai husbands or boyfriend in the moo baan .. They'll know where farangs is.

Who needs facts when we can have a thread like this one?

I understand why many are making the comments that they are... But if it was the wife, wouldn't she find a way to dispose of the unwanted husband without trashing her car?

Trashing the car like that almost seems like husband was pissed off and decided to trash the car rather than let the wife have it and then run off.

Also it this is what happened an wife and husband took off, not surprising why the wife wouldn't report him missing

Not saying this is for sure the case, but would not be surprised to see this guy pop up some where down the road.

Of course would be equally unsurprised if they found his body either

In either case, hope the BiB are putting the wife to the question

Truth be told, we know more than what the local "police" do.
