Crime Man Shot Dead by Housemate Over Unpaid Rent in Nonthaburi
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 49-year-old man allegedly shot and killed his housemate following a heated argument over unpaid rent in Nonthaburi province late night of 27 May, before fleeing the scene on a motorcycle. The incident occurred at approximately 23:30, at a single-storey house in Bang Rak Yai Subdistrict, Bang Bua Thong District. Police Colonel Phrut Jamrungratsan, Superintendent of Bang Bua Thong Police Station, received the report and dispatched officers along with forensic medical staff and volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation to investigate. At the scene, officers found a .38 calibre revolver and a single spent cartridge case on a wooden table outside the house. Nearby, the body of the victim, identified as Mr. Adul, 30, was found lying on the ground with a gunshot wound to the temple. The alleged shooter, Mr. Somchai, 49, the brother-in-law of the property owner, reportedly fled on a motorcycle immediately after the shooting. According to the homeowner, who asked to be referred to as Mr. A, both the victim and suspect had been renting a room in the house and were known to be friends. Mr. A explained that he lived there to maintain the property on behalf of his employer and occasionally called on the two men for help with chores such as cleaning fish tanks or gardening. On the night of the incident, Mr. Somchai had arrived first and was drinking with Mr. A when Mr. Adul arrived shortly after. A dispute quickly erupted between the two renters over unpaid rent. During the argument, Mr. Somchai reportedly grabbed a revolver, which Mr. A claimed he kept on the table for security due to frequent thefts in the area and shot Mr. Adul in the head before fleeing. Police have collected evidence from the scene and are reviewing CCTV footage along the suspected escape route to track down the gunman. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are urging Mr. Somchai to surrender. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-29. -

Report Thaksin Rallies Behind Yingluck in Rice Case Drama
Picture courtesy: Facebook Yingluck Shinawatra The saga of Yingluck Shinawatra’s rice pledging legal battle has taken a dramatic turn, as her brother and former prime minister, Thaksin Shinawatra, throws his weight behind her bid for a retrial. This high-stakes legal wrangle centres on a compensation case stemming from the rice pledging scheme overseen by Yingluck’s administration, which has had lingering repercussions. Yingluck, having faced significant liabilities, is now challenging the Ministry of Finance’s directive for her to pay a staggering 35.7 billion baht in compensation. In a crucial recent development, Thailand's Supreme Administrative Court decreed on May 22 that Yingluck is liable for a partial payment of 10 billion baht, reflecting adherence to existing legal procedures. Thaksin has stepped into the fray to strategise Yingluck’s legal manoeuvres, affirming her entitlement to pursue a retrial within 90 days. He assures that any legal process will unfold through legitimate channels, dependent on the evolving political climate and restored stability within Thailand. Legal commentators are paying attention to Yingluck's litigation steps, as they address a contentious financial order against her. Thaksin’s vocal support has also raised public interest in the intricacies of her case. Norawit Lalaeng, representing Yingluck as her steadfast legal advisor, has pointed out the substantial 18.9 million tonnes of rice that lingered in warehouses at the time of the military coup on May 22, 2014. Mr. Lalaeng argues that a timely sale of this rice above the pre-coup valuation could potentially have mitigated the financial blow to Yingluck, further slashing her compensation burden. In light of recent sales, these hefty stocks were moved by the current administration at a rate of 25 baht per kilogram, generating approximately 250 billion baht in revenue. Yingluck's legal team had sought to present this transaction as new evidence, potentially altering the compensation calculus. However, such innovations were dismissed by the court, as reiterated by Mr. Lalaeng. Adding to the legal and political turmoil, PM's Office Minister Chousak Sirinil weighed in, asserting the impropriety of the original damage order requiring Yingluck to shoulder the full 35.7 billion baht liability. This commentary adds another layer of complexity to a case already multifaceted through its intertwining of legal arguments and political subplots. As Yingluck explores every possible avenue for her legal redress, the Shinawatra family support remains steady, with Thaksin signalling resilience in waiting for political tempests to calm before potentially facilitating her return to Thailand. The case continues to be a compelling watch for its intricate balance of legal pursuits and political undercurrents. In conclusion, Yingluck's quest for a retrial over rice pledging compensation claims continues with significant familial and legal backing. However, it stands mired in complications of political and legal realms, as new evidence emerges and the case garners further public and political scrutiny.
