Family of Raped and Murdered Girl ‘Told by Thai Officials to Go Home and Make Another One’


The family of a British tourist who was raped and murdered while in Thailand has claimed authorities told them, ‘Why are you so bothered? Go home and make another one’.

Hannah Witheridge, 23, was raped and murdered on the island of Koh Tao in September 2014. David Miller, who she was travelling with, was also murdered.


In a Facebook post, Hannah’s sister Laura criticised Thai authorities for their handling of the case and their treatment of the family. She claims police told her family, ‘Why are you so bothered? Just go home and make another one.’

‘Why are you making such a fuss, she will be back in 30 days as something else, she may have better luck next time,’ Laura recalls them saying.


Laura goes on to say that there have been a number of ‘suspicious deaths’ on Koh Tao, many of which were, ‘where possible, covered up as suicides and accidents.’
