Police said they have clear images of the two male attackers entering the apartment and the Thai woman holding a child outside while watching for police. Officers recovered pieces of thick wood used as batons to beat the Italian.
Pattaya Police Superintendent Thummanoon Mankhong speculated that the Thai woman was Pietta’s former girlfriend who hired the two thugs to break into his room to kill him due to jealousy over the Italian’s new girlfriend.
