TAK, DEC 18 (TNA) – A Myanmar couple and their two sons have
been brutally murdered in a shack in Thailand’s border town of Mae Sot.
A suspect has been identified as 48-year-old Myanmar
national known as Suay, who is believed to be in hiding somewhere in border
areas of Mae Sot in Tak province and Myanmar’s Myawaddy town.
His motive to murder the couple along with their
four-month-old baby and four-year-old son is still unknown.

overnight at their grandmother’s.

and assistance to the traumatized girls.
