Chinese Man Denied Bail for Pattaya Murder

Chinese Man Denied Bail for Pattaya Murder

A Chinese national has been denied bail following the murder of a transgender woman in Pattaya. Tongyuen Fu, 42, was escorted to court under heavy security, wearing a bulletproof vest and helmet due to fears of mob retaliation. Authorities cited the serious nature of the crime and the risk of flight as grounds for denying bail. Meanwhile, the victim’s family held a brief Buddhist ritual at the crime scene before retrieving her body from the Police General Hospital. This high-profile case has reignited concerns over violence against transgender individuals in Thailand and raised questions about the judicial process for foreign nationals. As the investigation continues, the local community and human rights advocates are calling for justice to be served swiftly and transparently.
