Somchai Boonyung, 44, was taken into custody Aug. 17 for the killing of Wanchai Phujuey on Soi Bohsong in front of Kruatonmong Karaoke.

Somchai claimed that his nephew brought back home a lot of friends and they were smoking drugs, so the two family members got into an argument. Wanchai fled the house and his uncle followed.

He added that his nephew was rude to him and he couldn’t stand it any longer.

He was charged with homicide.
