Officially, it was a robbery gone bad when the women started to yell. That is what the man confessed to. His girlfriend told the police who he was after it was released that it was taped and there may be an accomplice. He apparently had bragged to her.
The police had traced the ladies travels prior to the murders and had been in the company of a caucasian male on a motorbike trip earlier in the week.
Now, the police are claiming the man had 2 accomplices. And that there was a conspiracy. This was as of March 6th.
It is supposed to be impossible to have a handgun in Thailand. So, there is some gang connection. Which gang, pick one. Russians, locals. At least they caught the shooter.

I read from Thairath.co.th that they were killed just because they were at the wrong place and at the wrong time. It just happened that this Thai creep, at the time, was looking to rip off tourists at the spot. Though he confessed that, the polices still are not sure if that is really what it was. Some said it might have something to do with mafia group and some suspect that it could be something about their past; love affair or enemies from back home. Who knows?

Hi, after the capture of the alleged killer, the Russian authority in Thailand and the Bangkok Police had agreed that the prime reason for the killing was motivated by Russian mafia.

they were not "working girls" for sure. what would any normal russian girl from a big city do outside in the night? I guess there is something to do with drugs.

Probably never get the correct answer, but bet some Russian mafia is behind it.
