webfact Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Chiang Mai man, 71, allegedly kills lover, 26, commits suicide By The Nation FILE photo A 71-year-old man is believed to have killed his 26-year-old lover, a married woman, before hanging himself in Chiang Mai on Monday, police say. The bodies of Sompong Chuenjai, 71, and Sasithorn Ruantha, 26, were found in the man's townhouse in Ban Praewa village in Tambon Tonpao, San Kamphaeng district on Monday evening. The bodies were found after Sasithorn failed to pick up her children at their school as usual, prompting the teacher to call her husband, Samart Kaewson, 30, to pick them up. Samart said he could not contact his wife over the phone and then learned from his eldest daughter that Sasithorn often visited Sompong at the townhouse. He had the daughter lead the way to the townhouse. Samart called police after no one inside answered his knock. Police in turn sought help from a rescue unit of a local foundation to break in through the front door. Police found that Sasithorn was killed from being repeatedly hit in the face with a wooden stick. Sompong was found hanged inside his bedroom. A doctor determined the two had died about five hours earlier. Police suspect that Sompong called Sasithorn to discuss the love triangle and killed her after the talk did not go the way he wanted.

geriatrickid Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I doubt that love was ever a part of the relationship. Perhaps one was an unwilling object of attention or there was a financial arrangement that had undergone a change in the terms, to put it politely. Mentally stable 26 year old married women do not chase after elderly men for "love". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tifino Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 found more interesting reading; by image searching the Court building. It had all the Hits, instead, about that other aussie who hanged self after buying the dud Ute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanemax Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 The 26 year olds eldest daughter knew about the affair and knew where the 71 year old lived and the Husband was unaware of the relationship or where he lived . This could be a double murder , made to look like a murder /suicide ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedigree Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Or could it be that the husband knew about the affair and somehow masterminded a good plan to execute them both and make it look less suspicious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they do for their love of money. As always it is all speculation based on nothing very much. Maybe the husband gambled away all their money and it was the only way his wife could get money to feed the children? You see it is easy to just speculate scenarios out of thin air. In Thailand it is doubtful that the truth will ever be known. In the meantime the children have lost their mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although your speculation is not based on anything reported , no mention of any gambling. Its highly unlikely that the 26 year old woman was having an affair with a 71 year old man Quite probably a paid for liaison. Its highly unlikely that a 71 man would murder a 26 old married woman who finished with him . Would he even have to physical ability to murder her ? Its odd that her young daughter knew where he lived . Sounds to me like husband found out , went round there , caught them in the act and the rest is history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I doubt she was his lover.More likely a mia noi or gik, on some stipend. 26 year old women don't screw 71 yo men without a fair amount of incentive. As to the cause, I'm not speculating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i’ll forgive you this one as your comment may be a reflection of your own health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
