Warrants out for four in stabbing case
CHALONG: Arrest warrants have been issued for four men, one a policeman, who were involved a brawl in a karaoke restaurant in Karon last week that ended in the stabbing death of 23-year-old Supradit “Ad” Boonyawat. The killing sparked a heated protest on Friday by about 100 villagers who massed at the Chalong Police Station to demand justice for Supradit. The warrants were issued after summonses requiring the four to report to the police station within a week expired, and none of the four had put in an appearance. One of the men now sought by police is the owner of the restaurant where Supradit was killed, and is himself a police officer. Chalong police earlier declined to release the name of the officer, but said that he had been transferred to a police station in Thab-pud district in Phang Nga.
