Hotel staff told police the woman arrived at about 11.50am with a man on a black Honda Scoopy motorcycle with a plate 2 กฉ 8306 registered in Nakhon Si Thammarat. The pair booked the room for one night, with the man paying. At around 5pm, the man reportedly left and later returned with a bottle of beer. Staff said he left the room again at 8.56pm, telling them the woman had fainted. Staff then checked the room and found her unresponsive. Photo via Channel 8 Following the receipt from a mobile banking transfer for the hotel room, the man was identified as 50 year old Witthawat, a snooker player known locally as Sian Kluay. Investigators said the two had previously been in a relationship but had separated. Officers believe the pair arranged to meet at the hotel and may have argued. Based on evidence at the scene, police suspect the man assaulted the woman and may have used a pillow to suffocate her.
