Nico Deutsch, who was seriously hurt, is being treated at Vajira Phuket Hospital, under police guard. Police had launched a manhunt for the German after Picha Nampadung, a 35-year-old Phuket woman, who had been missing for a week, was found dead on Sunday. Her decomposed body was found in a wooded area near a road to Khum Muang Chaofa Hill in tambon Wichit in Phuket’s Muang district. The body, which has deep cuts to the stomach and throat, was found wrapped in a mattress and a sack along with the woman’s doll. Police spotted Deutsch walking on Soi 8 off Saiyuan Road in tambon Rawai on Sunday evening.
