A Cambodian construction worker has been arrested for the
stabbing death of a countryman during a drunken argument on Koh Larn.
Wandee Chien, 29, was captured while sleeping in a wooded
area in the hills on the Pattaya island July 9. He was charged with the
murder of Rand Bond, 30, who suffered multiple stab wounds to the chest and
back.
Witnesses said Wandee, Rand and three other Cambodians
drank about five bottles of wine and dined on dog-meat soup at a Koh Larn
construction site when Rand began boasting about his skill in picking
winning fighting cocks. For some reason this annoyed Wandee, who began
arguing with Rand.
Witnesses claim Wandee settled the dispute by stabbing
his co-worker, then ran into the night, hiding in the hills.
