webfact Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Boy, 16, paid friends 20,000 baht to kill his dad, say policeKALASIN: -- Police in Kalasin have arrested a 16 year old boy who they say hired three teenage friends to murder his 60 year old father.But the attack made to look like a theft went wrong. The father was slashed about the head and body with a sharp object but was not killed. He lived and ended up in ICU needing 100 stitches to various wounds, reported Sanook.Police originally thought that the attack on Friday night was made during the course of a theft of fighting cocks that a man named only as Sompong, 60, raised at his house on the Hua Khu Bypass in the north eastern Thai town.But they soon discovered this was not the case and arrested the man's 16 year old son who was named only as "A".He admitted that he had hired three friends for 20,000 baht to kill his father. They were supposed to make it look like a theft and cause the chickens to make a lot of noise and wake his father. This happened and his father came out to investigate but the murderous attack was bungled leaving Sompong grievously wounded but still alive.The son said that he had argued constantly with his father. He claimed that he had been assaulted and abused all his life.Kalasin police have discovered that the assailants for hire are aged 16 and 17 but no further arrests have yet been made.Police will be interviewing the son in conjunction with child protection authorities to get to the bottom of why he paid for his father to be killed. This will determine what charges will be laid against him.Source: Sanook -- 2016-07-26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwikeith Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Why did a 16 year old pay to have his father killed? Easy answer MONEY. Father dead son would probably get house/land/fighting cocks etc. To have 20k bht in the first place for a 16 yr old village boy is quite a lot of money. Maybe P drugs involved by the young ones and he needed money to pay debt, once he got the farm he coulld sell that and loose the lot. Drugs cause children to steal from parents, i have seen it first hand in NZ where the son of my friend who was a really nice lad who got addicted to heroin steal from his father. Years later he is fine now after rehab, one of the lucky ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well,i didn't read it because unless the police are employing 16-17 year olds,it wasn't written.Nice try to bash but failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderer555 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 According to the local 'Coconut Telegraph', the son only promised the assailants the money, with payment due upon the successful completion of the job. It has also been reported that while the son was being interviewed at the local police station, the alleged assailants called the son demanding payment. There is much more background to this event, and as horrible as the assault was, actions of this type are not exclusive to Thailand and could of occurred anywhere in world. Locally the father is well-known for his fighting roosters, and the 'Coconut Telegraph' agrees that the cuts are a form of karmic debt as they closely resemble the cuts left on the roosters after a fight...
