Thread: White Foreigner Killed And Body Dumped In Saraburi

An unidentified body that appeared to be a white European male in his 40s was found dumped near a foothill in Saraburi province. The man was wearing only his underwear and had been beaten and shot in the mouth.

SARABURI – September 30, 2012 [PDN]: at 11:30 a.m., a report of the body of a white man being found was received by Pol. Lt. Col. Yam Lekmanee, detective inspector of Kaeng Khoi police station. A police team went to check the scene, with Pol. Col. Jakkrit Weeradej, the director of the police station, Dr. Prasit Chaimingjit, director of Kaeng Khoi hospital; and the Ruamkatanyu foundation staff.
The man’s body had been left at Wiriya foothill, behind Khao Kaeo village, 80 meters from Sangkoi-Banna route, moo 4, Tamaprang, Kaeng Khoi, Saraburi province.
At the scene, police discovered the body of an unidentified white man, about 40 years old. The man seemed to be European, and had a receding hairline. The man was lying on his side, his face down to the ground. There was a gunshot wound in his mouth that broke three teeth. The bullets had passed through the back of his head, and there were many bruises all over his body.
The man was found wearing only gray Wool World label bikini underwear stained with fecal matter. He also had a steel automatic watch on his left wrist. The doctor said he had been dead for more than 10 hours, so the body was sent to the forensic division to perform an autopsy.
Police examined the area, and about 5 meters from the body, they discovered a shallow, newly-dug rectangular hole under a bush. The hole was about 24 cm deep, and the hole’s length and width matched the dimensions of a human body. About 20 meters from the body, in a flat area of the foothill, police found a leather shoe, and near the shoe were some tire tracks that appeared to be from a pickup truck, so the police collected the evidence.
Police initially assumed that the murder had been committed by more than one person. They speculated that the criminals had beaten and shot the man elsewhere, but had brought the body here to bury. But they apparently changed their minds, perhaps because a passerby might have spooked them, or they were afraid to be seen, so they just left the body and escaped. Police also assumed that the man had been killed in some dispute.
Detectives are investigating for more clues, and co-operating with police officers in nearby areas to check if any foreigner was reported missing.

Police have arrested a woman who allegedly conspired with her mother and half-brother in the murder of her estranged South African husband in Keang Doi district of Saraburi province.

Kacharin Duvel and her half-brother Surasith Pacchathepmonkol are charged with the murder of Oswald Heinrich Duvel, 50, a South African national reported to have been working as manager of a design company.

Police found Duvel’s naked body on the roadside on Sept 30. He had been shot through the mouth. Initially, Mrs Kacharin and her family denied knowing anything about the murder, police said.

Police learned that the couple were fighting in court for the custody of their three-year-old child.

The victim’s car was found abandoned on the roadside and investigators then found evidence linking his wife and her brother to the murder.
They were questioned again, and later confessed to the murder, according to police.

Police said Mrs Kacharin admitted she lured Duvel to his death, offering him the chance to see his son.

Her half-brother was the shooter, police said. Mrs Kacharin had planned the murder with her mother and half-brother.

The accused widow told police that she was tricked into marriage so that her husband could work in Thailand. They later split up, but as their son grew up Duvel said he wanted custody of the child.

She did not want to lose custody, so she planned the murder, according to police.

Mrs Kacharin and her half-brother Surasith have been charged with premeditated murder, while her mother will become a state witness and guardian of the child, police said
