Khon Kaen murder suspect’s assets eyed
By THE NATION

 

Three suspects murder of a karaoke bar worker.

 

Women may have escaped to areas out of Myanmar govt’s control: official

 

BANGKOK: -- AUTHORITIES ARE looking into the assets of a 24-year-old suspect who is being sought in connection with the gruesome murder and dismemberment of another woman in the northeastern province of Khon Kaen, said Sirinya Sitthichai, secretary-general of the Office of Narcotics Control Board.

 

Priyanuch Nonechai, 24, is believed to have fled to Myanmar after allegedly murdering Warisara Klinjui, 22, and cutting her into four pieces to fit into two buckets that were buried in a field in Khao Suan Kwang district. Accompanying her were Kawita Rachada, 26, and Apiwan Satayabundit, 28.

 

Sirinya said Priyanuch’s family’s assets would be investigated. A preliminary investigation found that Priyanuch’s brother and husband had been arrested for possession of drugs and had connections with drug gangs. Priyanuch’s name had also been listed in a database tracking drugs suspects, Sirinya said.

 

He added that the investigation showed that the suspects appeared to be small-time drug buyers and users but they boasted of a luxury lifestyle on Facebook. 

 

In their search for the three suspects, Thai anti-drug personnel have cooperated with their Myanmar counterparts, the Safe Mekong Coordination Centre and the militaries and police of both nations.

 

He said that if the suspects could not be found, they had probably escaped into areas inside Myanmar controlled by non-state militias where even Myanmar authorities cannot enter.

 

A provincial court has issued arrest warrants for five suspects: Priyanuch, Kawita, Apiwan, Wasin Namprom, 22, and Jidarat Promkun, 21. Wasin and Jidarat are already in police custody.

 

Wasin claimed that Priyanuch killed Warisara and cut her into pieces while he was only the driver. Jidarat has denied any involvement in the killing, claiming Priyanuch asked her to sell the victim’s mobile phone and valuables.

 

Meanwhile, a source has claimed that Myanmar police have said they know the whereabouts of the three suspects still at large.

 

Myanmar authorities also have a description of a local man who was seen assisting the women after they crossed the border checkpoint from Chiang Rai’s Mae Sai district to Tachilek town in Myanmar on May 25.

 

Myanmar authorities told Pol Colonel Ekkorn Bussababordin, commander of the Chiang Rai Immigration Police, that they already knew the women’s location and would arrest them. 

 

They said a man had been seen picking them up from a dormitory residence near their new workplace, an entertainment venue in Tachilek.

 

Following a meeting on Wednesday, Khon Kaen police chief Pol Maj-General Promnatthakhet Hamkhampai dismissed social media speculation that Priyanuch might have been acting on the orders of a transnational drug gang. 

 

Those rumours reported that the gang was supposedly seeking vengeance after Warisara gave police information that led to many arrests last year, including of Priyanuch’s husband.

 

He said the women had been only selling drugs locally, not across borders.

Well there is something new....boasting on Facebook.

There is probably a TV candidate out there for this girl. One you could take home and meet mum. 

 

She will re-invent herself and either slip out of the country and trade else where in the world. Has the assets to get away.

Cops know exactly where they are, if they are still alive is another thing.

Amazing how quick the scent of money is at generating police activity as they look to confiscate her 'drug' money.  Meanwhile how is the extradition of Boss Red Bull proceeding?

"Priyanuch’s name had also been listed in a database tracking drugs suspects, Sirinya said."

If she was on a drug's database, it's no wonder she manage dot cross the border through immigration.  they just look for tourists coming here too often!

What a bunch of frikkin clowns.

[petesc55]

She could try hiding in a melon patch, but that distinctive tattoo on her thigh may give her away.

The question I have is - how were the body parts found? We have been told that the dismembered body had been put into two plastic containers and buried in a field. Was there a tip off, was a labourer plowing the field, or didn't they bury them very well? With the rain that we have had this year the land is fairly damp and soft and easy to dig.

 

If it has been withheld for operational reasons perhaps I should ask the New York Times.
