45-year-old Perth man, Simon Peter Carman was charged over the weekend with the alleged murder of a 17-year-old Thai girl after her body was discovered inside a suitcase near railway tracks in Pattaya. Mr Carman was arrested at an airport in Bangkok just minutes before boarding a Jetstar flight to Australia. Police allege that Mr Carman strangled Tunchanok Donhomla following a dispute over payment for her company.
He is now being held in Pattaya’s notorious soi 9 holding cells, which has been described as a hell hole. Former Gold Coast loan shark Tim Ward, who has spent time in the cells himself, says Mr Carman is facing “hell” in the prison
