在泰國著名的旅遊勝地芭提雅，陽光沙灘的背後卻發生一起令人震驚的命案。2025年4月26日凌晨，這座距離曼谷約150公里的沿海城市，一間出租公寓內傳出淒厲的呼救聲。61歲的公寓清潔工回憶道，當時她清楚地聽到樓上201房傳來激烈的打鬥聲，一名女子不斷哭喊著「放開我啊！不要傷害我！」。持續約一小時的衝突聲突然歸於沉寂，這份不尋常的寧靜讓清潔工內心感到強烈不安，卻因害怕而未立即報警。

翌日清晨，清潔工會同公寓管理員懷著忐忑心情敲響201號房門。在久未獲得回應後，他們用備用鑰匙開啟房間，推開浴室門的瞬間，眼前的景象令人魂飛魄散：一具全身赤裸的女性遺體躺在血泊中，軀幹自腹腔至胸腔被完全剖開，部分器官不翼而飛。

警方調查發現，房間登記人為42歲中國湖北籍電焊工付同遠。根據出入境記錄，這已是他第四次造訪泰國，此前並無犯罪紀錄。死者身份確認為29歲的變性女子潘達查，出身泰北貧困家庭，早年通過性別重置手術開啟新生活，最終卻在從事性產業時遭遇不測。

據嫌犯付同遠供稱，案發當晚11時許，潘達查按照約定來到房間進行性交易服務。在脫衣沐浴後，潘達查突然反悔拒絕繼續服務，雙方因此發生激烈爭執。付同遠要求退還半數費用遭拒後，衝突迅速升級。在扭打過程中，付同遠用手肘壓制導致對方窒息身亡。

令人髮指的是，犯案後付同遠竟冷靜地取出事先準備的剪刀，仿效「開膛手傑克」手法對遺體進行殘酷解剖。完成暴行後，他若無其事地清洗手上血跡，躺在床上休息數小時，翌日早晨七點還從容地網購了從曼谷飛往雲南昆明的機票。

值得注意的是，付同遠早在案發前兩小時，就已於當地雜貨店購入剪刀、束線帶等犯案工具，此舉顯示案件可能並非單純臨時起意。有推測認為，嫌犯可能在交易過程中發現對方是變性人，因感覺受騙而萌生殺機。然而這個說法尚未獲得警方證實，真正動機仍待調查。

這起案件不僅暴露旅遊安全隱憂，更引發對性工作者權益保障的討論。目前泰國警方已將嫌犯逮捕歸案，但遺體缺失器官的下落、預謀犯案的可能性等疑點，仍有待司法單位進一步釐清。這起跨國命案在泰國社會投下震撼彈，也為芭提雅這座旅遊城市蒙上一層陰影。

Shocking Murder Case in Pattaya, Thailand: Chinese Welder Kills Transgender Woman and Disembowels Her

In Pattaya, a famous tourist destination in Thailand, a shocking homicide occurred behind the sunny beaches. In the early hours of April 26, 2025, screams of distress were heard in a rented apartment in this coastal city about 150 kilometers from Bangkok. A 61-year-old apartment cleaner recalled that she clearly heard intense fighting coming from Room 201 upstairs, with a woman repeatedly crying out, "Let me go! Don’t hurt me!" After about an hour of commotion, the sounds abruptly ceased. This unusual silence filled the cleaner with deep unease, but fear prevented her from immediately reporting the incident.

The next morning, the cleaner and the apartment manager nervously knocked on the door of Room 201. When no one answered for an extended period, they used a spare key to enter the room. The moment they pushed open the bathroom door, the scene before them was horrifying: the naked body of a woman lay in a pool of blood, her torso completely torn open from the abdomen to the chest, with some organs missing.

Police investigation revealed that the room was registered to 42-year-old Fu Tongyuan, a welder from Hubei, China. According to immigration records, this was his fourth visit to Thailand, and he had no prior criminal record. The victim was identified as 29-year transgender woman Pannada, who came from a poor family in northern Thailand. She had undergone gender reassignment surgery earlier in life to start anew but ultimately met her tragic end while working in the sex industry.

According to the suspect Fu Tongyuan’s account, Pannada arrived at the room around 11 p.m. that night as agreed to provide sexual services. After undressing and showering, she suddenly changed her mind and refused to continue, leading to a heated argument. When Fu demanded a partial refund and was refused, the conflict escalated rapidly. During the struggle, Fu pinned her down with his elbow, causing her to suffocate to death.

What followed was even more chilling: after the crime, Fu calmly took out scissors he had prepared in advance and mimicked the methods of "Jack the Ripper," brutally dissecting the body. After completing the act, he washed the blood from his hands as if nothing had happened, rested in bed for several hours, and at 7 a.m. the next morning, calmly purchased a flight ticket from Bangkok to Kunming, Yunnan, online.

It is worth noting that Fu had bought tools such as scissors and cable ties at a local grocery store two hours before the crime, suggesting the act may not have been entirely impulsive. Some speculate that the suspect may have discovered during the transaction that the victim was transgender, leading to feelings of deception and triggering the murder. However, this theory has not been confirmed by the police, and the true motive remains under investigation.

This case not only exposes safety concerns for tourists but also sparks discussions about the protection of sex workers’ rights. While the suspect has been arrested by Thai police, key questions remain unanswered, such as the whereabouts of the missing organs and whether the crime was premeditated. The transnational homicide has sent shockwaves through Thai society and cast a shadow over Pattaya’s reputation as a tourist city.
