A 37-year-old Thai man let his rage, at the thought of his Thai wife returning to her former husband, turn to mass murder this Sunday in the northern Thai province of Uttaradit. He shot his wife, father-in-law, mother-in-law, two sisters of hers and wounded some other neighbours using a pistol before he fled the area in his Toyota Camry car. Meanwhile, Thai police after setting up a dragnet to capture the suspect, captured him in a forest in Ranong province on Tuesday, two days after the killings. The police initially tracked his steps by following his mobile signals until they disappeared once he shut down his mobile phone. They then circulated his profile nationwide. They rightly concluded that he was making for his home province of Ranong in the south of Thailand.
