Prakob Seenak, 29, is wanted for the killing of Bio Clinic customer Raweewan Setarat on September 13, who was suing plastic surgeon Dr Phaisal Hengsawas for malpractice.

Among the three suspects issued with arrest warrants was Phaisal's younger brother, Sakda Hengsawas, who has gone into hiding.

The gunman in the case, Jaturong Benkul, was arrested last month. He has implicated Prakob and Sakda.

According to an informed source, Prakob has confessed his crime and told police there were two more accomplices in the case. One of them was a woman.

Based on Prakob's testimony, police have already recovered a part of the gun used to shoot Raweewan. It was found in a canal in Pathum Thani.

"Police are also trailing Sakda," the source said.

Prakob reportedly admitted he also killed Boonlue Rungruang, who was a key witness in Raweewan's case against Phaisal.

Sakda is said to be using a false name while in hiding.
