Given they have his name, DOB and nationality, it shouldn't be too hard to see if he is still in the country. Assuming of course they learnt from Koh Tao and don't wait two months to start interviewing people of interest, like a guru who by that time had already gone.

My wife is the owner of the Hair Salon, that Lek works for and we ask all people, who read this message to check the facebook website of the fitnesscenter, that her boyfriend is running in Chalong. When you scroll down you see a picture with the frontside of the Times Magazin. The guy with the black T'Shirt on the right is Nico Papke, her boyfriend and the guy, that the police is looking for.

Please provide any information to the next police station, post it here or post it on one of the following websites where her neice opened a missing person report:

I think there is a pattern evolving: Farang falling off balcony: Suicide!

Thai woman found death, but with connection to a Farang:  Farang provider or "Guru" is involved, but has left Thailand. (= Elvis has left the building). Farang (Guru) automatically guilty even if he has left 2 weeks before the "event".

Cheers.

Didn't expect her boyfriend to look like that.

 

Shouldn't be too hard to find and I'm sure he'll end up at a gym sooner rather than later for fear of losing his gains

May one wonder if, in the background, doesn't lurk a disgruntled Thai husband, fiancee, boyfriend or gik?

Just fantasizing, never mind.

Of course, Thai people don't do wrong things, so let's concentrate on the farang.

Shouldn't be so hard to find him. He looks quite unique.

Check carefully his body  tatoos ....   they will be useful to ensure his identity  as these guys cant go more than 10 minutes without ripping off their shirt to show off their bodies...

You can't clap in one hand and it takes two to tango . Surely the Farang didn't just kidnap her

He is the owner of Be Fit Gym in Chalong and he has not been seen there for many days.

Suspicious?

As the German guy was last seen with her, its quite logical for the police to want to talk too him .

    

Let us hope that they have eloped!

Would be so sad if she has met with foul play at the hands of her boyfriend.

Looks like a pretty good Gym so hard to believe he would just walk away from it.

We just received the message from Lek's friend, that she was found dead behind the Toyota Showroom in Phuket Town. We are shocked and crying, because she was such a kind and busy person and we want again to ask everybody, who reads this message, for their help.

Please go the facebook site of the Gym of Nico Papke and check his picture, as I mentioned before. You scroll down and see a picture from Time Magazine. The guy on the right with the black shirt is Nico Papke. He is the one, that the police is hunting. Please, no more jokes here...please take this serious and if you have any information regarding where Nico Papke is or if you have seen him, please let the Chalong Police know right away or post it here. I check this thread all the time and as soon as there is any information, we are in contact with the police and can forward this information to the police.

Please spread this news to anybody you know here on Phuket or in Thailand.

It is assumed, that he is still in the country and has no friends and no money.

 

Here is again the facebook site of Be Fit Gym:

Thanks

 

Oh no. So terrible. RIP and hopefully the family gets closure soon.

 

 

I noted on Facebook a supposed friend of hers stating in Thai not to worry that she was in Krabi with a friend. It could of course be somebody associated with the German deflecting attention. Either way it does not look good for the young lady and he looks as if he may be taking mind and body altering substances.

re Koh Tao, nobody ever inferred the "guru" was involved, they merely wanted to question him as to the Belgian woman's state of mind, etc; and i have never seen someobody accused here if they have left prior to any "event"...

and there ARE quite a few criminal expats here, and i'm talking hard core violent criminal,

not soft things like drug usage and/or sales

in Koh Tao, we can be 99.99% sure the perps are NOT farang, in this case re the German guy,

he was definitely the last seen with the Thai woman, and they WERE seen arguing,

this all prior to her disappearance

This is terrible news, i feel so sorry RIP young lady, and i hope they get this Bastard boyfriend, before he skips the country!

The thai owners of the gym have posted clearly saying that Nico was just employed there as a trainer cum manager, they have distanced themselves from him and prayed that he is caught very soon.

First Phuket News tells us that the missing woman works at "message shop" in Rawai, then they tell us "Pischa “Lek” Nampadung, a 35-year-old beautician  works at a local massage shop ." Then the husband of her employer tells us she works in his wife's  "Hair Salon"

She has been "missing" about a week and I would think there may be a million Thai people who's friends don't know where they are at this time ? Does that mean they are all missing" ?

It's all to confusing for me !

Yes, and they have deleted all photos of him from their facebook page.  What a <deleted>. Let's hope they catch him soon.

 

A body has been found off of Chao Fah Thani road. It hasn't been positively identified, yet, so no one can be sure that it is the missing girl.

How about we hit the nail on the head and say he looks like a punk.
