Police search for trio behind serious beating of Italian man
Boonlua Chatree
Police are searching for two men and a Thai woman who attacked an
Italian man in his Thepprasit Soi 4 apartment.
Marco Pietta, 57, suffered serious head injuries, as well as a broken nose, cuts
and bruises in the Oct. 22 attack at the HP Apartments. He was placed in
intensive care at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya.
Police said they have clear images of the two male attackers entering the
apartment and the Thai woman holding a child outside while watching for police.
Officers recovered pieces of thick wood used as batons to beat the Italian.
Pattaya Police Superintendent Thummanoon Mankhong speculated that the Thai woman
was Pietta’s former girlfriend who hired the two thugs to break into his room to
kill him due to jealousy over the Italian’s new girlfriend.
