webfact Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Karaoke waitress shot dead in front of well-known Phuket pub Eakkapop Thongtub The Saraphan Pleng pub. The women died in the road outside.PHUKET: -- A 35-year-old karaoke waitress was shot dead early this morning (May 16) in front of one of the island’s best-known live music pubs, Sarapan Pleng on Patak Rd in Chalong.After receiving the call at 4am, Chalong police arrived to find the body of Nootsika Glaseuk from Ranong lying on the sidewalk surrounded by a large crowd of onlookers.Ms Nootsika, who worked at the nearby Ginggaew Karaoke had been shot in the right side of her head, causing instantaneous death.Questioning witnesses, officers learned that the victim had gone to the pub to eat and drink with friends. She left about 20 minutes later.As she walked out a single shot was heard, fired from a pick-up truck driving west on Patak Rd (on the same side of the road as the pub) towards Chalong Circle.Ms Nootsika collapsed on the ground.It happened so fast that no one could give details of the truck, even its colour.Police are working on the theory that Ms Nootsika was not specifically targeted, but was an innocent victim of the gunman who was shooting indiscriminately at the bar.Investigators are examining security camera footage to try to identify the vehicle and the killer.Source: http://www.thephuketnews.com/karaoke-waitress-shot-dead-in-front-of-well-known-phuket-pub-46299.php-- Phuket News 2014-05-16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webfact Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 Phuket woman gunned down in ChalongPhuket GazettePHUKET: -- A woman was gunned down at the Saraphan Pleng Pub in Chalong early this morning.Nuchsika Klasuek, 35, was shot in the head after leaving the popular live-music pub at about 4am by an unidentified suspect inside a pick-up truck.“Eyewitnesses said the pick-up truck was heading toward Chalong Circle on Patak Road when one shot was fired directly toward the pub. The round of ammunition hit Ms Nuchsika in the head, killing her,” said Chalong Police Superintendent Krittapas Dazintharasorn.“At this stage we don’t believe that Ms Nuchsika was the intended target. It seems like the shooter was trying to fire into the bar.”Ms Nuchsika, a waitress at King Kaew Karaoke, had left the bar after having spent about 20 minutes inside with friends, Col Krittapas explained.“Nobody was able to identify the the pick-up truck, and it had no licence plate,” Col Krittapas said.Police are checking CCTV in the area and entertaining the possibility that more than one person was involved in the killing.— Kritsada MueanhawongSource: http://www.phuketgazette.net/phuket-news/Phuket-woman-gunned-down-Chalong/29459-- Phuket Gazette 2014-05-16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmitch Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 The last guy murdered was a top cop's brother who also acted as a debt collector. That's the type of clientele you find in this establishment, and that's probably why the police are initially considering it a mistake, albeit a tragic one. They know this bar well, it seems.

Som wat Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Dreadful - even if it was an accident that she was shot - the shooter must be caught and charged with murder - should be put to death too. What if they arrest the wrong guy ? Oh please, the Burmese fisherman has already confessed that he was the one. I'm betting that someone with a small penis is some how involved in this.

YeaBiGgiEs Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Wait, she went out to eat and drink with friends and then left 20 minutes later? SO we are to believe she ate and drank all in 20 minutes.. or am I not reading this right? Maybe I need coffee... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamNoone88 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 It is a paradigm whereby the criminals are ruthless because they can and the law continues to be ineffective at all levels from the top down. You only have to read the papers to see politicians, influential families, business and just about every-one else "getting away it" more often than not. Until crime and punishment have equal standing, very sadly, this lawlessness in society will continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Som wat Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 “At this stage we don’t believe that Ms Nuchsika was the intended target.

Beetlejuice Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 If this woman has been shot in the right side of her head causing instantaneous death, than it appears she was shot at point blank range or from a close range and a specific target for the murderer or murderers. In the case of an indiscriminate shooting aimed at the bar, than there would have been more than one shot fired and bullets flying everywhere. So it seems there are details that don`t ring true in this case. As usual I doubt there will be any follow ups or updates regarding this murder, so we will never know the full circumstances that lead up to this unfortunate woman`s death.

Lokie Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Scary $hit... very unlucky if indiscriminate, drive by - sounds more like she was targeted, seems every Hot head Thai carries or has easy access to a gun, not good is it really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomfiddler Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Sounds to me like she was definitely the intended target, probably by a jealous boyfriend. Asians do not kill people indiscriminately like their western counterparts, there had to have been a reason ! Only nutters like "Son of Sam" kill strangers for no reason.

CharlesHH Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Has anyone noticed that with all the cameras and "witnesses" no one can be caught for this type of crime. Oh, wait, if the shooter volunteers and confesses, then police work will be done. Dreadful - even if it was an accident that she was shot - the shooter must be caught and charged with murder - should be put to death too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loles Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 So guys, don't think this is a new weed in PKT. This was happening many times (35, 25, 15, 5, .... yrs ago also). My view this poor lady was the target cause if some-one ordered to threat on karaoke the gunmen would used grenade, machine gun, etc .... Not the CCTV but the street cameras will help a lot to identify the vehicle, and this will be the first clue. And don't think too bad about PKT police detectives, they will clear this case well.
