Man Released From Prison Two Months Ago Linked to Five Deaths
Man recently released from prison is suspected of murdering five people, including two Russian siblings and a Thai family of three, whose bodies were discovered buried in a forest pit in Chachoengsao province.
Police revealed that Por was released from prison only two months ago but is suspected of five murders. Authorities are pursuing two other gang members and investigating whether additional crimes are linked to Por and his associate Thong. The initial case involved the disappearance of two Russian siblings in Chachoengsao province, leading to the arrest of Por and Thong, who confessed to killing the Russians and burying them in a forest near Ban Laem Subdistrict. They later admitted to murdering a Thai family of three—a mother, father, and daughter—during a robbery attempt in June, burying them nearby.
On July 31, Deputy Police Region 2 Commander Chatchai Surachetpong revealed that both Russian victims were found buried together in a one-meter-deep pit, with the woman beneath and the man above. The woman showed signs of physical abuse, while the man had approximately two gunshot wounds to the abdomen and head. Both bodies remained clothed and were laid directly on the ground without wrapping.
Regarding the Thai family, authorities say Por confessed to posing as a police officer to rob the home. When the daughter returned from a convenience store, she was abducted as well. All three were tortured, shot, and buried in the same pit. The suspect claimed he intended only to steal a motorcycle and did not know the Russian victims beforehand. Police are continuing to investigate whether additional crimes are connected and are actively tracking two remaining gang members believed to still be in the area.
