Thai man hunted following suspected murder of 12 year old stepdaughter in Bangkok

A 29 year old man become a prime suspect in the brutal murder of a 12 year old girl, referred to as ‘Ae,’ in Bangkok, Thailand. He was acting as the caretaker for Ae, who was his stepdaughter.

The incident reportedly occurred at 3.30am today, with claims that the man allegedly beat Ae to death, using a baseball bat, before hiding her body in a concrete-filled ice box, supposedly due to Ae’s purported act of stealing food supplements prepared for clients.

Currently, investigating officers are intensifying their efforts to apprehend Yuthana, also named as Jaeb.

Information suggests that after the murder incident, he might have gone to a friend’s apartment complex in Bangkok’s Din Daeng district, and remained uncontactable afterwards. Meanwhile, his spouse, Niramon, has been detained, and her testimony successfully recorded by the investigation team. If discovered to have been complicit in the murder, she may face legal prosecution on the grounds of aiding and abetting murder, as well as the concealment of a corpse.

“Ae was a victim of a fatal beating, allegedly by her stepfather, using a baseball bat. Following her death, her body was concealed in an ice box filled with concrete. The reported motive for this heinous act was the stealing of food supplements,” said a source close to the case.

The police are working relentlessly to locate and apprehend Yuthana to enable the next stage of the legal process, Khaosod reported. This gruesome murder case has left the nation shocked and yearning for justice for the young victim.

Two weeks ago, a six year old Thai girl sustained injuries after her stepmother assaulted her, prompting the child’s distressed father to expose the abuse by posting a video of the incident.

The police and social services arrived at the scene today to assist the young girl named Aem, who had suffered from the violent actions of her stepmother. To read more click HERE.
