Two elderly men stabbed each other to death in a bank in Phuket Town Both died.
PHUKET – June 6,2013; The manager of the Poonpon Rd branch of the Bank of Ayudhya, Sophon Udomsap, called police after the two men, who had been discussing a debt in a 2nd floor room of the bank, began to argue fiercely, and then stared to fight.
By the time officers arrived the two were lying in a bloody heap on the floor of the room, dead.
Mr Sopon told police that Ponthakorn Teerabenjakul, 60, the owner of apartment in Thung Thong, had borrowed a large amount of money from Paiboon Weswanich-sanong, 71, putting up his apartment and land, valued at more than B30 million, as security against the loan.
Ponthakorn failed to repay the money so the two agreed to meet in the bank with the manager to discuss how the debt might be repaid. Paiboon brought with him two potential buyers of Ponthakorn’s land
The discussions grew ever more heated until Ponthakorn pulled out a flick knife and began to stab Paiboon in the chest. The gravely wounded Paiboon managed to grab hold of the knife and stabbed his assailant in return until both collapsed, dying from loss of blood.
The bodies were sent to Vachira Phuket Hospital to await collection by relatives.
