Death for Thai murderers of British backpacker
A Thai court today convicted two Thai fishermen for raping and murdering a British tourist at a Thai beach resort and sentenced them to death.
The two defendants, Bualoi Posit, 23, and Wichai Somkhaoyai, 24, had pleaded guilty last week to carrying out a brutal New Year’s Day attack on Katherine Horton, a 21-year-old student from Wales who had been vacationing on the island of Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand.
