FUNERAL FOR BURMESE WOMAN MURDERED BY EX-BOYFRIEND HOLDED BY THAI EMPLOYER
NAKHON Si THAMMARAT: A suspect in the murder of a Burmese woman whose body was found dumped in a temple in the province of Nakhon Si Thammarat has been detained by police. The victim's Thai boss has said that she will arrange the burial and expressed her condolences.
On March 12, "Sa," a Burmese worker who had been employed by Ms. Prapassorn Pikulwan for more than ten years, had a burial at Wat Boonnarob in the Mueang district of the province of Nakhon Si Thammarat. She expressed her satisfaction to the reporters that the culprit had been apprehended by the police.
Sa has disappeared since March 4, 2024. Her body was found on March 11 in the well in the area of an abandoned cubicle behind Wat Thao Khot, Ratchadamnoen Road, Nai Mueang Subdistrict, Mueang Nakhon Si Thammarat District.
Ms. Prapassorn said Sa was a kind and hardworking person who was loved by her colleagues. Everyone who knew her loved her because she was a responsible and dedicated employee who never caused trouble. Those who were close to her had many happy memories together.
I’m so glad the police caught this guy. I want him to pay for what he did to Sa. He should be executed. Sa has always helped his family and he does this to them? This is despicable,” Ms. Prapassorn said. She added that she would take responsibility for organizing Sa’s funeral.
The suspect, identified as Mr. “Nai” or Mr. Phitchaya Bunyattisak, 27, was arrested while on the run in Krabi province. He confessed to the murder and showed remorse. He claimed he committed the crime out of jealousy. He also said he sold the victim’s gold chain for nearly 100,000 baht and spent almost all the money
Nai insisted to the police that he did the crime by himself alone while being questioned on March 13. However, Sa’s close friends and other Burmese migrant workers do not believe that. They say that Sa was a heavy woman, and it would have been impossible for him to lift her body and throw it into the well. They also say that Mr. Nai’s claim that he was still with Sa is not true, as they had separated a long time ago.
They urge the police to conduct a thorough investigation and not assume that Sa’s case is not important because she was a migrant worker.
