Arson suspected in fire that destroyed ex-Democrat MP's car in Songkhla
23 Sept 02:27Key points summarised by AI
A fire completely destroyed former Democrat MP Sirichok Sopha's car at his Songkhla home in the early hours of Saturday.
Forensics officers found car tyres and palm-thatch roofing material placed under the vehicle, leading them to suspect arson.
Sirichok believes the incident may be retaliation for sarcastic remarks he recently made about a local politician.
Investigators are reviewing CCTV footage, which shows two men on a motorcycle entering and leaving Sirichok’s property around the time of the fire.
