The mother of a woman who died in Bangkok seven years ago and is suspected to be the 15th cyanide-poisoning victim of Sararat Rangsiwuthaporn, dubbed "Aem Cyanide", met Crime Suppression Division (CSD) police investigators on Monday, a police source said.

Ms Ladda, 64, from Kamphaeng Phet province, reported to a team of investigators under deputy national police chief Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn at the Police Club on Vibhavadi Rangsit road in response to a letter from police.

The woman gave police information about her daughter Montathip, alias Sai, 37, who died in Bangkok seven years ago. She reportedly told police she personally thought it was Ms Sararat who caused the death of her daughter, although she had no evidence to substantiate the belief.

She said she was glad Pol Gen Surachate had accepted her daughter's case for investigation, believing that Montathip would be given due justice.

Pol Col Anek Taosuparp, the CSD deputy commander, said a meeting was held on Monday to follow up the cases involving Ms Sararat. He said the investigation was about 80% complete.
