A newlywed Thai couple were found beaten to death on a beach with their marriage money stolen, police reports say.

 

The bodies of Seksan Thongpetch, 30, and Boonchuay Jaengaisong, 29, were found with fatal head injuries on a Laem Chabang beach on Thailand's eastern seaboard, where the couple had apparently gone for a romantic evening stroll after getting married, said Police Sub-Lieutenant Chamnan Khotgert.

 

A bag containing the couple's wedding gifts, including cash, was gone.

 

"We suspect the two motives behind the murder were robbery and jealousy," said Chamnan, who noted that while the marriage money had been taken the perpetrator had not stolen Boonchuay's golden necklace and bracelet, suggesting a previous relationship with the deceased.
