On Saturday, Woramet Ben Taota, 16, and Yam, also 16, went on a motorcycle ride in the province of Lampang, but Woramet never came home.

Ben was discovered dead in a grove in the Ban Than area on Sunday morning, with injuries that appeared to have been caused by blunt force, according to the local police.

The teen’s phone and cash were reported stolen from his shoulder bag, and police speculated that he may have been robbed.

There are no indications of a struggle, leading them to suspect he was slain somewhere and dumped in the woods. As of Monday, May 8th, his partner has still not been located.

We are currently looking for the victim’s female companion and other close friends. Since she was the last person to see him alive, she is a crucial player in this case.

Ben’s mother informed the police that on Saturday night, her son had bid her farewell and informed her that he was “going to work with friends,” but he had not provided any other information.

The homicide was attributed to a potential love affair, a personal quarrel, or a business issue, according to the police, who stated that they are not excluding any motives.

We have not yet resolved the matter, police colonel Sittisak continued.

Since the deceased’s phone and cash were not recovered, it is still unclear whether it was a robbery, but we cannot rule out alternative possibilities.
