BANGKOK: -- The couple accused of murdering a 79-year-old Japanese man before dismembering and dumping his body in a canal in September last year pleaded not guilty in their first appearance at their trial yesterday.

Pornchanok Chaiyapa and her husband, Somchai Kaewbangyang, both 47, were presented to the Criminal Court yesterday morning on charges of the premeditated murder of Yoshinori Shimato, unlawful detention, concealing and destroying a body to cover up murder, theft and electronic card fraud.
The couple denied all charges and requested the court provide them with lawyers.

"A Japanese man she dated prior to Shimato died after he fell down a flight of stairs in 1999."

They had to stab and suffocate Yoshinori Shimato since he insisted on living in a single story house.

They don't have a lawyer yet. Good. That's obviously why they pleaded not guilty, thinking the old "deny, deny, deny" route the way to go.

Hopefully, if found guilty later, the lying plea will increase the sentence.
