A jealous ex-boyfriend violently confronted a 25-year-old female teacher, Ms. Raiwint Borisut, after picking her up for a driving lesson. He questioned her about a new suitor, and when she denied any involvement, he shot her in the head before forcing her younger sister, 15-year-old Ms. Pawinarat, out of the car and fleeing the scene with her body.
This incident took place on October 19, 2024, near the family’s home in Chachoengsao Province. Ms. Pawinarat raised the alarm about her sister after witnessing the shooting and the car’s escape.
The couple had been in a relationship for a while but had broken up two months prior. On the day of the incident, the ex-boyfriend, identified as Mr. Athiswat, offered to teach Ms. Raiwint how to drive. Tensions escalated when he grew suspicious that she was being pursued by another colleague.
Ms. Pawinarat described the terrifying moment when Mr. Athiswat drew a gun and shot her sister. Afterward, Ms. Pawinarat ran to alert their family and reported the incident to local authorities, urgently seeking help to find her sister.
In a concerning development, Mr. Athiswat reportedly posted on Facebook after the incident, expressing regrets and indicating a willingness to end his life, stating, “I can no longer accept reality.”
