German Gets Arrest Warrant for Allegedly Killing Girlfriend

By The Nation

 

 

AN ARREST warrant has been issued for a German who allegedly killed his Thai girlfriend in Phuket early this month and slit his own throat during a police encounter on Sunday.

 

Nico Papke, who is receiving treatment for his injuries at a hospital, is now charged with pre-meditated murder and hiding the corpse of his girlfriend Picha Nampadung to cover up his alleged crime. 

 

The two had moved in together just a little over a month ago. Witnesses told police the couple used to quarrel often because Papke was possessive.

 

“Our ongoing investigation shows that Picha disappeared after she told him she wanted to break up,” Chalong Police Station deputy superintendent Pol Lt-Colonel Somsak Sopakarn said yesterday. 

 

According to police, the couple had a big fight on June 30 and Picha was last seen alive on July 1. Her body was found on Sunday, prompting officials to launch a manhunt for Papke who slit his own throat upon facing police later in the day.

Another great story that will enhance the lovely image of farangs amongst the locals...

I thought they already had him in custody so why get a warrant.

According to Mia the local press reports about the girl having been kao shoo mak mak...

Can't follow your logic...There is ABSOLUTELY no justification in killing someone over alleged infidelity (they were just gf/bf). He could have just ditched her and gone on his way.

 

He deserves to rot in hell.

" German Gets Arrest Warrant for Allegedly Killing Girlfriend "

Wouldn't it be the BIB that got the arrest warrant ?  to serve in the German ?  Or am I being picky ?

[Ulic]

The guy should know there are plenty of fish in the sea......especially in Thailand.

I am sure he regrets his impulsive temper and he will have plenty of time to think

about life regrets while in a Thai jail.

Sentenced to 20 years- out in 10 or less- He still has life- she has none.  Another horrid crime committed by a foreigner.

As I understand it if he pleads guilty his sentence halved = 10 years = out in 5 years with some of that time in a German jail, which are 4 star  compared with any Thai jail.

Feed him to the crocs!!

Amazing, I know a British guy from a bar who looks exactly same. But in Pattaya. At least from this perspective of the photo.

Yep.

As in other cases.

After some years in Thai prison handed over to the Germans.

They count one year in Thai prison as three years in the German 4star accommodation.

5 years in Thai prison = 15 years in German prison.

He might walk free before reaching the mid 40s.

 

A horrible example how an unprepared newbie can fail in Thailand (not fall/jump in this case). Some sources say he came here in December 2016, others say "less than a year".

 

And for the perfect murder: don't rent a car in Thailand

About the 3rd or 4th case I remember where the corpse was found using GPS tracking data.

 

 

[Stargeezr]

I hope this guy gets lots of Jail time in Thailand, and real justice is handed out while he is there.

  Rot in Jail is a good term, and maybe he will get some infection that takes him out.

Geezer

He is in hospital, getting an arrest warrant is probably just a formality

[balo]

He sliced his throat so he wanted to die , they should have made his wish come true. 

[watgate]

He is a coward amongst other things. He was too gutless to actually kill himself. I hope the thai's in prison will not be too happy with this low-life murderer killing an innocent young lady and will take their disgust out on him.

PHUKET — A German suspect in the murder case of a Thai woman was yet to be charged on Wednesday as he remained in the hospital.

 

Phuket police said Nico Papke, 36, rejected allegations he murdered his girlfriend when police on Tuesday brought him an arrest warrant at Vachira Phuket Hospital. Papke has been hospitalized since Sunday after he used a box cutter to slash his own throat as authorities attempted a raid on the rented house in which he had been staying.
