Pattaya police were called to inspect a car believed to be that of a missing German businessman, Mr. Hans Peter Mack, on Sunday, July 9th. His wife and family are offering a three-million-baht reward for finding him alive and a 100,000-baht reward for finding his vehicle.

The car, a bronze/gray Mercedes-Benz, was found parked at a parking area of the CC Condo on Soi Khao Noi within the Nongprue sub-district of Banglamung district, Chonburi province.

Case of the missing German took a sinister turn on Sunday morning with a senior Thai police officer confirming that someone had used a cleaning agent to wipe away fingerprints throughout the interior of the vehicle and even on the outside. This suggests that a serious crime has been committed, raising fears for the German man’s fate.

There are real fears for the safety and well-being of a German property tycoon who disappeared on Tuesday, July 4th last in the Bang Lamung area of Pattaya after a meeting with a fellow German national to discuss potential property deals. On Sunday, his luxury Mercedes Benz E350 coupé was found in the car park of a condominium complex with police discovering evidence that whoever parked it there had attempted to conceal their fingerprints. It has also emerged that police have spoken to a key witness who saw two young women park the vehicle on Wednesday, July 5th last, sometime in the afternoon.

Mr. Mack’s body was found in a large freezer in a rental home in the Chokchai Garden Home 1 Village in Pattaya which police targeted following reviewing leads they had been investigating throughout the last 24 hours and CCTV that showed the freezer being transported in a black pickup truck by what appeared to be foreign nationals.
Mr. Mack’s body had been cut into multiple pieces, according to forensic technicians, placed in black garbage bags, and stored in a freezer at the rental room.

Gruesome.

Three ruthless gang members have been arrested in connection with the gruesome murder of Hans Peter Ralter Mack, a 62-year-old German businessman whose body was dismembered and stuffed into a freezer.

Pol. Col. Tawee Kutthalaeng, the Superintendent of Nongprue Police Station, disclosed that during the investigation, three individuals were identified as suspects: Mr. Olaf Thorsten Brinkmann, a German national, Mrs. Petra Christl Grundgreif, also a German national, and Mr. Shahrukh Karim Uddin, a 27-year-old Thai national of Pakistani descent.

Furthermore, there have been discussions regarding business negotiations concerning the sale of land near the boxing camp in Chak Ngaeo, Huay Yai sub-district, Banglamung district, Chonburi province, which belonged to the deceased. The person in charge of overseeing the matter was summoned for questioning, but their involvement in the specific case is still unclear.
