Police probe Yakuza connection in murder case involving Japanese nationals

Two Japanese men are wanted by Thai police for alleged involvement in the killing and dismembering of a Japanese man. Body parts, including hands and a skull, of the victim were found in black plastic bags scattered in Nonthaburi province.

The police have detained and are interrogating a 34-year-old Thai man for alleged involvement in the murder. They are consulting experts about the tattoo they found on a victim’s body part, which they believe to be in a Yakuza style.

The man in question, identified only as Game, denied any involvement in the murder, claiming that the victim rode with him in the front passenger seat while two other Japanese people occupied the back seat, according to police.

When they arrived at a warehouse, the two Japanese in the rear instructed the suspect to leave the car before they walked, with the victim, into the warehouse.

The suspect then stepped out to have a cigarette. He heard a gunshot, and later the pair came out of the warehouse carrying several black plastic bags.

They then instructed Game to drive to several places in the Bangbuathong district of Nonthaburi, where they disposed of the bags.
