Thai police probe murder of British man and his wife
Police have detained three Thai men for allegedly robbing and fatally beating a British man and his Thai wife in the resort area of Khon Kaen, an area popular with foreigners.
Local media reported that two of the suspects had confessed to robbing and murdering the couple at the Jack Beach Resort, where they worked as security guard and cook respectively.
A maid at the resort found the badly beaten bodies of the couple in their bungalow.
The suspects allegedly told police that they robbed the couple of cash, a mobile phone and an ATM card.
The Briton had lived in Khon Kaen for about two years.
The local governor said that the murder badly tarnished the province and its tourism business.
