Mum cries foul as killer gets parole

The mother of a victim who was strangled to death and her body burned in 2014 on Wednesday cried foul after finding out the man convicted of her daughter's abduction and murder is set to be released, decades early, on parole this year.

Accompanied by Atchariya Ruangrattanapong, head of the Crime Victims Assistance Club, Patcharee Punthong also lodged an appeal with the Justice Ministry asking to review the parole granted to Polkrit Wiset, a former army sergeant sentenced to 33 years and 11 months over the death of her daughter, Ploynarin Palipol.
