A Burmese man was arrested for allegedly bludgeoning to death a compatriot during a drunken brawl.
Muang Ram, 29, re-enacted his role in the killing of Dua Ka Payaset, 42, behind a commercial building in Soi Yensabai in South Pattaya Jan. 22.
Ram said he and other Burmese friends were living on Soi Krom Teedin and were drinking in a restaurant when they went out to do some mischief. Ram decided to hide Dua’s motorbike in the woods, which prompted a fight.
Ram was unable to fight the larger man, so he told police he took a steal bar and beat Dua in the head with it until he was dead.
