While Malaysian national Suhaimee Binjehwae maintained his innocence, Noppadol Waeyali and wife Sitirokiyoh Mapani – both Thais – reportedly confessed, said Sungai Kolok superintendent Colonel Kong-art Suwankham. Police alleged that their investigations found that the victim’s Sungai Kolok-based compatriot had hired Binjehwae to kill the man. Binjehwae and his two Thai accomplices allegedly invited the victim to a night out on two motorcycles and took him to the dumpsite, where they allegedly killed him with a sword, police said.
