Two motives seen in killing of ex-top cop's nephew
Play
Police are investigating two possible motives for the killing of renowned former crimebuster Wiroj Pao-in's nephew, who was shot by a sniper while was holding his one-year-old baby outside his Nonthaburi home early on Friday morning.
One of the potential motives behind the killing of 31-year-old Thiwaphan Pao-in was his conflict with a doctor customer over the sale and car-ownership transfer involving a Bt3-million Bentley car early last month. The other motive stemmed from a group of Nakhon Pathom-based people pawning cars to borrow Bt8 million from Thiwaphan, which they failed to repay. Thiwaphan had reportedly made efforts to recover the debt, resulting in arguments.
