Dismember ment case suspect retains lawyer

A female suspect in the murder and dismemberment of a karaoke-bar worker has retained a lawyer to fight her case in court.

Apiwan Satabundit has denied killing the victim, Warisara Klinjui, but admitted being present at the crime scene alongside self-confessed murderer Priyanuch Nonwangchai.
The crime took place on May 23 in Khon Kaen province. 
 In the wake of the crime, police have arrested several suspects as well as Apiwan and Priyanuch. 
Of them, only Priyanuch has confessed to the killing. 
Boonyong Kaewfainok, a lawyer, said on Tuesday that he had been hired by Apiwan’s family to represent her. 
“Today is my first meeting with Apiwan,” he added.
