PHUKET:-- Police say they have arrested the man who drove the motorbike used in the street slaying of Patong tuk-tuk boss Sakol Srisompotch in Kathu late last month.
 

The 28-year-old suspect, who police declined to name, was taken into custody in the northern province of Mae Hong Song on Friday after a warrant for his arrest was issued on Oct 31, Kathu Police Deputy Chief Investigator Lt Col Amponwat Seangreung told The Phuket News today (Nov 14).

 

The suspect is now at Kathu Police Station, Col Amponwat confirmed.

 

“The driver was arrested in Wiang Nuea subdistrict, in the Pai district of Mae Hong Son province. We found him on Nov 11. He went there to marry his northern girlfriend,” he said.

 

He now faces the charge of conspiracy to murder, conspiracy to illegally obtaining a firearm and conspiracy to bringing a gun into a public area without permission, noted a Facebook post by Kathu Police today.

 

“He has denied the charges, but he is undergoing due process now anyway,” Col Amponwat told The Phuket News this afternoon.

 

Speaking briefly with The Phuket News today, Kathu Police Chief Col ML Pattanajak Jakkapan also declined to name the suspect.

 

“We have apprehended five suspects. That is all we can tell the media for now,” he said.

Looks like they arrested a lot of people for that murder.

 

Might cause a shortage of tuk tuk drivers, thugs, serves them well.

 

Many of them thugs/murders thinks that running back to their home provinces will get them off the hook, well in this case, he got free transportation back to Phuket and I guess not the most comfortable one.
