Now lets see how the courts handle this despicable and barbaric, and seemingly premeditated murder. This horrific event deserves / warrants ongoing community and international interest in regard to the 'justice systems' handling of it and the outcome/s for the suspects / perpetrators if found guilty.

My sincere condolences to all Raymond's family and friends, too, and may he find peace where he is now.

It's an evil and horrible thing to happen.
According to the latest newspaper report, the case has now already been solved - alas, not unfamiliar in Hua Hin, bringing back memories of poor Toby!

raddish wrote:I was friend of ray when he was living in the uk and also visited him whilst he lived in thailand.He was reluctant to move to thailand as he had suffered with throat cancer and when I spoke to him recently he had just been diagnosed with restricted arteries to the brain so his outlook was not good. He was a lovely man and a gentle person and not at all agressive so we are all at a loss why anyone would do this although about a month ago he was attacked and badly beaten with a club when he returned home late at night. His attacker just ran off without attempting robbery so some other motive must exist. Hopefully his attackers get what they deserve.We will all miss him.
Raddish where is he from?

Our condolences to Ray's family and friends.

Another case of murder, by so called "family".
I've lost my mind and I am making no effort to find it.

Working overseas and the wife gave me this terrible news just now about Ray.

I knew Ray from the owner of my house rental mate, Ray God Bless Him was a lovely guy who would not harm a fly.

My wife and I dined with him in Cafe Oils on a number of occasions; my wife and I are very shocked to hear about this.

My condolence’s to Ray family and friends, may you rest in peace wee man I will never forget you.
