Police doctor claims his brother murdered missing couple

Suphat’s letter was handed to the media by his son Ake, who visited his father at Phetchaburi Prison.
Suphat complained in the letter that police investigators raised the case against him unfairly without allowing him to provide evidence to dispute the charges.
Suphat alleged that his brother Suthep Laohawattana framed him. He claimed Suthep abducted and killed Samart Noomjui and Orasa Kerdsap because of a family conflict and out of greed.
Earlier, Suthep played a video clip, showing their mother, Thanim, saying she feared Suphat would kill her if he took all of her money. But Suphat alleged in his note his mum was talking about Suthep. Suphat claimed his mother was suffering amnesia and often mistook his name for Suthep’s.
Suphat alleged that Suthep and other siblings wanted to take care of Thanim so they could embezzle her assets. He said he tried to seek a court order to become his mother’s caretaker – in line with their late father’s wish – to stop other siblings siphoning her money.
Suphat claimed his father wanted the children to wait until the mother passed away before dividing the assets among them.
Samart’s father, Sawang Noomjui, has alleged that the police doctor abducted and killed his son and daughter-in-law.
But Suphat claims he had no row with Samart and Sawang. He instead helped Sawang’s daughter get a job at the Police Hospital.
Samart’s pick-up was found at a house in Nonthaburi and Suthep said the house belonged to Suphat. But Suphat claims he did not own the house. He said the house keys and land deed were kept by Suthep. He claimed not to have been to the house for seven years.
Suphat said Suthep was the one who led Sawang to the house. He alleged that Sawang was a henchman of his brother and alleged that the missing man was a suspect in several crimes, including a murder.
Earlier, a Myanmar worker, who was identified as Kala, alleged that Suphat was cruel and caused him to lose his arm in a corn-crunching machine. He alleged that Suphat had killed some other Myanmar workers.
But Suphat claimed that Kala was a worker for Suthep and that his brother owned a factory that hired a lot of workers from Myanmar. Suphat claimed that everything Kala said was invented by his brother. He alleged Kala was jailed at Phetchaburi and now sought on an arrest warrant for theft.
Suphat said he was sorry he had to expose his own brother but he had no choice.
Suphat alleged Suthep was trying anything to get their mother’s money, even trying to destroy his own brother and nephew.
Suphat said in the letter he had a lot of guns because he used to be a sporting sharp-shooter.
Meanwhile, Subin Raksa-ard, a father with two sons, filed a complaint with the Muang Phetchaburi station, saying his ex-wife and the mother of his sons, had disappeared.
Subin said his ex-wife, Sasithon Saetung, was a stepsister of Suphat and was last been seen at the Suphat’s farm in Phetchaburi.
