A police officer and his wife escorted a middle-aged woman while she deposited THB1.07 million into the bank but the temptation proved to be too sweet for the couple, THB2 million in debt, because the woman’s body was found buried in their backyard. The defaulted desperados are now on the run with their children for robbing and killing Utchareeya Homkajorn in Surin.
Police discovered Utchareeya’s burned car on a side street with a 15kg cooking gas tank inside. 3 days later investigators were led to Pol Sen Sgt Maj Rattakan’s abandoned home where they found the slain victim with her throat slit. Police also uncovered a photo of the victim’s car with the words “good bye” written on it, 2 more gas tanks, and bloodied items.
The stolen money was a loan repayment from village chiefs in Rattanaburi, reports Bangkok Post.
