 BANGKOK: -- A man stabbed his wife to death in a cram school then killed himself to escape the consequences.

 

The wife was a cleaner in the school and her husband went there to talk with her, reported Daily News.

 

He was out on bail after he had attacked her in March causing 100 stitches. On Tuesday night he finished what he started.

 

The couple were due to discuss compensation arising from the original attack next week.

 

A security guard called police to the cram school in the Nimit Mai area of Minburi. He had found the couple lying side by side in a bloodbath in a classroom on the third floor of the shop house.

 

Amporn Prathumma, 44, was face up and dead from neck wounds. Next to her was her husband Chanasin Prathumma, 49, also with a neck wound. A one foot long kitchen knife was next to his body. There was signs of a struggle and bloody footprints all around the classroom.

 

The area security guard Saeng-uthai Chonthep said that he saw both the man and the woman enter the school on Tuesday evening. Later on he found the lights still on and the school not locked up so he went to investigate.

 

When he got no answer to his calls he went up to the third floor and found the grisly scene.

 

The female victim's elder sister Natsaran Parpamai, 45, said that the couple had been married 20 years but the man drunk a lot and they argued frequently. She told police that about March he had attacked her causing 100 stitches to be administered.

 

Her sister moved out because she was scared of him. But he was bailed by the court. They were due to attend a compensation hearing together on September 22nd.

 

Police surmised that the husband had tried to make up with his wife and on being rejected attacked her before killing himself.

 

The owner of the school said that they had a regular cleaner but she was absent on some family business so they had hired Amporn temporarily. He had never seen the husband at the school before.

Total recipe for disaster !

They have debt tickers; they also need death tickers. This stuff is happening too often.

so sad. Some thais just act like animal as far as love is concern. The government need to educate its people about love . So easy to kill because of love.....

Yes, I often take a one-foot long kitchen knife with me when I go to make up with people.

 

Thai cops love a bit of victim-blaming. It must be in their training, which is carried out in bars, I hear.

 

Perhaps he should not have been bailed and that is what they are deflecting attention from.

And why was he out on bail when he was obviously a danger to others?

The system failed here.

    Forgive me for failing to see the comparison.  Romeo did not murder Juliet before poisoning himself. 

[Retiredandhappyhere]

A young distant relative of mine was caught in his room with a very mild drug.  Bail was set at 150,000 bahts which his family could not pay, so he spent 6 weeks in jail before his case was heard and he was then released without a fine due to the time already spent in custody.  

 

The guy in this case inflicts severe injuries on his wife requiring 100 stitches and yet is released on bail despite clearly still being a real danger to his wife.  Now, she is dead.  Who has to share at least some part of the blame for this horrific crime?

Yet another Thai male who can't handle rejection. Nothing new. Children in adult bodies.

a difficult family situation gone totally wrong.

 

we may never know why the wife agreed to go to a lonely spot in the school to discuss pending matters, despite his mistreatment of the wife earlier on and what broke the camel's back.maybe they were destined to end this way.

it may not necessarily be only rejection but a host of other possibilities like affairs, ill treatment and not maintaining the household expenses.

there is no sufficient facility available for all the people who have to go on bail.

Yes they need to learn how Canada and and the USA prevent things like this.

oh please this kind of crime happens anywhere in the world. you cannot educate people about love and circumstances keep on change along the way for relationships to strain and sometimes end up in disaster, as happened in this case.

That is rather tacking if your comment is meant as humour.

 

A lot of women in Thailand fall victim to men who think they have a god given right to do as they please.

Thanks to Sahibji for the definition on cram school

Love is a serious mental illness!

Are you the killer's lawyer?

 

Not "a difficult family situation" but a self-centred psychopath (is there any other kind) determined to impose his outlook on others even if that meant destroying them.

 

I suggest she didn't run away because she was petrified. This is the norm in long-standing abuse cases. Victims are stripped of any power they hold in the relationship causing the victim to find it also impossible to stand up to the abuser.

 

"Destined to end this way". What does that mean? Something like mai pen rai? With support from family, friends, organisations supporting victims of abuse and the police, this woman would have stood a massively increased chance of escaping from her abuser and getting on with her life. There are very clear precedents from all around the world. But alone, it is very difficult as the victim has been reduced to a powerless state.

Hmmm.....don't know which utopian country you come from, but in Australia there is AT LEAST 1 woman a week being murdered by their husbands / partners!!

Why do the majority of TV people continually denigrate Thai people & their country. I live here with a lovely Thai wife & daughter & find no more things wrong with Thailand than OZ!! When they have immigrants critisizing Australia, they tell them to go back to their own country, I suggest the same to you. 

And if you don't live here, then don't make comments, I would say that you don't have anything better to do with your time, which is sad!

So does that description fit all these type of murders which happen on a daily basis all over the world.

Or are you as I belive just pigeon holing thai males.

Surley that should be 

A lot of women all over the world fall victim to men who are cowards and like to hit and abuse women.

You gotta love alcohol! How many times do you read about pot heads beating people up or murdering them?

And yet weed is illegal and alcohol isn't... Such is the insanity we call society!

 

PS. I don't do weed and I do drink in moderation.

"Some thais". Where you been in the world? People all over the world "just act like animal" and it doesn't necessarily need the love factor.

"Police surmised that the husband had tried to make up with his wife and on being rejected attacked her"

 

Seems we read this type of thing way too many times here.

This morning,i am definitely going to change my reading glasses.For the life of me,i thought the headline read 'charm school'

[Fireyfish]

poor poor woman she must have been terrified before being unmercifully slaughtered ... RIP .... unfortunately husbands killing wives after being released on bail is also prevalent in Australia ....
