According to cops, an air cadet ex-boyfriend fatally shot a glam influencer with his father’s handgun.
The 19-year-old Phumiphat “Nat” Chaiwanichaya is the son of Major General Somchai Chaiwanichaya, a former chief of staff of the Thai Army.
Supitcha ‘Gigi’ Preedacharoen, 20, was shot on Wednesday, April 19 at a posh apartment in Bangkok. According to police, the adolescent then turned the pistol on himself. At 3:20 PM, their bodies were discovered.
According to local media, Gigi, a social media celebrity with more than 200,000 followers, was being mistreated by her ex.
According to Gigi’s father, she broke their relationship two months ago due to his violence, and she relocated to the opulent condo to get away from him.
On her social media, Gigi’s manager announced the devastating news of her demise. “Thank you to everyone who has always followed her,” the message concluded. Everyone has always cherished her.
Screenshots of the allegedly abusive texts were later uploaded on Gigi’s page. In the texts, Gigi expressed her fear for her life. One spoke about Nat punching her in the face and kicking her in the back and chest.
Pictures of her face and body with injuries were also circulated.
Police are still looking at CCTV video from inside and outside the unit as part of their ongoing investigation.
According to local media, Nat seemed to be obsessed with firearms. Coconuts claims that in his social media posts, he may be seen sporting military uniform and brandishing weapons that are illegal for a person his age to possess in Thailand.
