Crime Authorities to Prosecute Suspect in Shooting of Khao Yai Wild Elephant ‘Plai Biang Lek’
UPDATE Local Councillor Surrenders After Firing Shotgun at Khao Yai Wild Elephant Picture courtesy of Matichon A subdistrict administrative organisation councillor (Sor. Or. Bor. Tor.) in Pak Chong district has surrendered to police after admitting to firing a shotgun to scare away a wild elephant known as “Plai Biang Lek”, which had strayed from Khao Yai National Park. The incident, which took place on 19 June, came to public attention after a conservation group posted on the social media page “This is Khao Yai”, showing photos of the elephant with what appeared to be two gunshot wounds on its right hindquarters. Conservationists urged urgent intervention from the Department of National Parks, the provincial governor, district officials and the police to investigate the matter. Following the outcry, Atthapol Charoenchansa, Director-General of the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation, ordered park officials and veterinarians to examine the elephant and determine whether it had been shot. If so, he instructed that legal action be taken swiftly under the Wildlife Preservation and Protection Act of 1992. On 24 June, Mr Samart, a local councillor from a subdistrict in Pak Chong, turned himself in to police at Pak Chong Police Station. He admitted to firing a Winchester Model 1300 Defender 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun on the afternoon of 19 June. According to his statement, he fired once into the ground and once into the air in an attempt to frighten the elephant, which had repeatedly damaged his and villagers’ agricultural crops. He denied firing directly at the animal. Police, led by Pol Lt Col Wichan Klinbuppha and Pol Lt Col Watchara Liabsungnoen, accompanied Mr Samart to the scene in Nong Nam Daeng subdistrict, where they recovered the firearm and other evidence. Witnesses were also questioned. Mr Samart has been formally charged with carrying a firearm in a public place and discharging a firearm in a public area. He was released on bail pending further investigation. Police are continuing to gather evidence and witness statements in preparation for forwarding the case to prosecutors. Authorities have stressed that harming or threatening protected wildlife is a serious offence under the law and that further legal action may be taken if forensic evidence confirms the elephant was wounded by gunfire.

Crime Woman Found Slashed to Death in Rented Room, Boyfriend on the Run
Picture courtesy of Amarin. A 22-year-old woman was found brutally murdered inside a rented room in Sriracha district on the evening of 23 June. Police have launched a manhunt for her boyfriend, who fled the scene on a motorcycle shortly after the incident. Police Lieutenant Patiphat Makaew, investigating officer at Bo Win Police Station, received a report of a suspected homicide at approximately 19:30. The incident occurred at a single-storey row of rental units in Moo 5, Khao Khansong subdistrict. At room number 14, officers discovered the body of Ms. Nannaphat, 22, lying in a pool of blood. She had sustained a deep and fatal slash wound to the neck. Nearby, two small kitchen knives were found on the floor, one of which was bent out of shape, possibly due to the force of the attack. The area was immediately cordoned off for forensic examination. Initial investigations identified the suspected killer as Mr. Supachai Srijaroenthong, also 22, a native of Udon Thani province and the victim’s boyfriend. The couple had reportedly been living together at the rented property for around six months. Witnesses reported hearing a loud argument shortly before the room went silent. Moments later, Mr. Supachai was seen riding away from the scene on a motorcycle. Forensic police, medical examiners from Laem Chabang Hospital, and local investigators were dispatched to the scene. Authorities are continuing to collect evidence and are working urgently to locate and apprehend the suspect. Police have urged anyone with information about Mr. Supachai’s whereabouts to contact Bo Win Police Station immediately. The case is being treated as a homicide and charges will be pursued once the suspect is in custody. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-06-25 -
