SURAT THANI:-- A Bangkok man took his long time girlfriend on holiday to a bungalow in Koh Phangan - where he slit her throat with a fruit knife after a jealous argument.

The man, Nathanet Rutworanon,24, of Lat Pla Khao Soi 59, then waited by the body for police to arrest him

He is a close relative of a former police officer, reports Thairath.

Police were called to the bungalow on the holiday island Tuesday by relatives of the man who he had contacted after the attack on 24 year old Kunthiga Churik a fellow Bangkokian from Prasertmanukit Road, Lat Prao.

Police found the two in the twin room. The girl was face up on the bed covered in blood. She had two knife wounds, one to the left shoulder and a ten centimeter wound to her throat. Police found a bloodstained knife that the couple had borrowed to cut up fruit, and a bloodstained t-shirt. The man was waiting, still in a state of shock. Police said the girl had been dead eight hours.

Nathanet admitted what he had done. He told police that he had known his girlfriend for five years and they had decided to come on holiday together. They had been out and when they returned an argument broke out. Nathanet said his girlfriend was jealous and he got angry. He stabbed her then slit her throat before telling relatives what he had done.

The relatives contacted the Koh Phangan police thereafter.

Nathanet was charged with murder and detained.

<deleted> is wrong with these people?I'm surprised it didn't say he was drunk,as that usually means everything's ok in amazing Thailand!

[klauskunkel]

RIP dead lady

Just another day in paradise...

He'll claim that he was drunk, and that she had been "flirting" with another man, so his jealousy got the best of him, and all will be forgiven, after the envelope delivery that is.

One suspects the only reason he didn't abscond was because of said relative.

If you read it again you will see that he claimed the girlfriend was the jealous one, which angered him.........swings and roundabouts though!

<deleted> is wrong with people nowadays?

[wabothai]

How big is the chance to get into an argument with a thai man? So far I have been lucky, but got my ticket.

Where's East Wopping? Dont u mean Wapping East in London.

[dunroaming]

Unlikely the public will ever know the truth here. Stories will be made up and deals will be done and the culprit will probably end being re-located. Who knows in the land of smoke and mirrors?

...sadly the way of the world..happening anywhere and everywhere at anytime.

They've been together for 5 years ?

One argument was enough to kill her ?

My Thai lady and me are now married for 20 years . I I would have killed her after every argument we've had , she would have died a 100 times , but I simply would not lose control over myself , I'll stay cool , even when she's angry .

Probably wanted to go to Koh Tao but the resorts were full

[Moonsterk]

Wish the TVF news-team writer would stop diminishing young women to the status of children.

He's a man but she's a girl- or was she a child?

[alofthailand]

So many racist anti Thai generalisations. I would have thought the mods should have expunged 70 % of the racist drivel.

Although violence is obviously not the solution nor is aquiessence under the guise of self control - it's more like dependence - or Co dependence - constant marital arguments are torture

I'm. afraid the UK is plagued with violence but many newspapers report other news rather than just salacious violence.

The violence cases and crime still makes the news because this is still under control. In Western Countries it is not mentioned any more on the news or in the newspapers because its a everyday thing that happens. So be glad it is still mentioned in Thailand and not wiped under the carpet like in most countries.
