A woman has been arrested on suspicion of killing and beheading her husband, then keeping his body in a trolley travel bag while she prepared to move out of an apartment in Bang Khunnon area in Bangkok Noi district of Bangkok.

A security guard at Thitiwong apartment in Soi Bang Khunnon 12 rushed to call police after he spotted a man's leg while helping Phonsuri Diphaeo, 36, take her belongings out of the room late Sunday morning.

The man, identified as Prasit Sombunyanon, 47, is Ms Phonsuri's husband and the room's owner. He had suffered from muscle weakness (myasthenia gravis) and allegedly had often scolded and assaulted by his wife, said motorcycle taxi driver Sarawut Ngamthae.

strange that she didn't go for the story of "He fell of the balcony, while I was next door talking to my friend". A lot less work to get the same result, as this seems to work everywere else in Thailand.

2 questions:
Where are the pictures? And how did she conceal the blood as it should have been leaking out of the bag and all over the place, right?
I feel sorry for the security guard!

This story gives me the creeps!!!

I always advise my foreign friends when they are considering embarking upon romantic involvements with Thai ladies: remember to keep your head.
