A Myanmar national has admitted to strangling a Thai woman in Bangkok, blaming drug-induced hallucinations, per Khaosod English.
The suspect, who was arrested last week, reportedly suffered from severe mental distress due to drug use at the time of the incident, according to Thai police.
The case has drawn attention to the growing issue of cross-border crime and substance abuse in Thailand's urban areas, as reported by Pattaya Mail.
