Young Model and Online Vendor Found Dead in Condo with Pillows Over Face; Boyfriend Missing
A 25-year-old online vendor and model was found dead in a Nonthaburi condominium with pillows over her face; her boyfriend, who suffers from mental illness and paranoia, disappeared the same day and remains missing.
At 7:00 PM on May 2, 2569 (2026), investigative officer Utit Asanok from Bang Bua Thong Police Station received a report of a death at a condominium on Chanthong Thiam Lane, Bang Rak Pattana Subdistrict, Bang Bua Thong District, Nonthaburi Province. Officers including Station Commander Thassagorn Konthong, Deputy Commander Chanadhip Panthong, and investigator Siroderm Sripunya, along with a forensic pathologist and volunteers, responded to the scene.
At the 8-story condominium, room 1422 on the 4th floor, investigators found the body of Ms. Panidsuada, known as Dream, 25 years old, an online vendor and model, lying face-down beside the bed. She was wearing only underwear, with two pillows placed over her head. The room showed signs of disorder. A diary was also found containing notes written by Nitirund, 33, her boyfriend and fellow online merchant, mentioning threats against him and requesting someone care for his cat and belongings.
Investigations revealed the couple had lived together for over five years. Nitirund suffers from mental illness with paranoid tendencies, constantly fearing someone would kill him. The victim suffered from depression and the couple had engaged in severe arguments, with one previous physical altercation. Nitirund's parents last contacted him on April 30 and have been unable to reach him since.
CCTV footage shows Nitirund left the condominium on April 30 at approximately 4:32 PM in a red sedan and has not been heard from since.
Nitirund's 52-year-old father stated that the victim's mother had been calling for several days without answer. Yesterday they came to the room but found it locked. They heard a cat inside and assumed the couple had gone out to eat. This morning, when the mother returned and had Nitirund open the door, they discovered she had died.
The father added that his son could not be contacted. His son and the victim argued regularly, both suffering from mental illness requiring doctor visits, though his son refused medication. According to his son's account, they frequently quarreled over the boyfriend not allowing his girlfriend to carry her phone while eating out. There was one previous physical altercation, though not severe. They had been together for five years.
Nitirund's 59-year-old mother said they had been dating for five years but only recently moved in together about a year ago. They previously fought about his infidelity, which the girlfriend resented and brought up repeatedly. The boyfriend believed the girlfriend would harm him, poison him, and insisted she eat first before he would eat. He constantly feared someone would poison him, refusing to eat at nearby restaurants and only at distant ones. He had visited psychiatrists frequently but never physically harmed her. She appeals to her son that if he is innocent, he should come forward and prove it, but if he is responsible, he must face the consequences.
The station commander stated the boyfriend disappeared on April 30 at 4:30 PM, approximately when the victim likely died. The couple entered the condominium on April 29 in the afternoon, and on April 30 the boyfriend left alone. The parents were unable to be reached for further comment.
