Police were looking Thursday for 2 assailants in connection with the deadly stabbing of a 26-year-old man in northern Bangkok.

CCTV captured the moment he was stabbed repeatedly by one of the attackers as his accomplice waited on a getaway motorcycle.

The victim was defending himself until the suspect plunged the knife into his throat. He collapsed as the attacker escaped with his phone.

The incident took place at about 10pm.

Bangkok police said Thursday that police will bring the pair to justice.

Police also that although the attackers made away with the victim’s iPhone, police have not ruled out other motives such as a personal vendetta.

Update:

A 26-year-old former convict confessed Friday to stabbing a man to death in northern Bangkok to rob him of his iPhone, an attack that went viral on social media due to its brutality.

Kittikorn Wikaha, who police said has served eight separate terms in prison, was being led through a police “re-enactment” of the alleged crime at 11am after being arrested at his residence earlier in the morning.

Kittikorn said he killed his victim because he resisted.

Speaking at a news conference, Kittikorn advised members of the public to think twice before flaunting their wealth at night lest they also end up as victims.

“Try not to put yourself at risk,” the alleged murderer said. “What’s valuable, keep it safe, don’t show off. The more you show off, the more tempting it is.”

The suspect also went on to rob two more victims of their iPhone and cash after killing Vasin that night.

Kittikorn had been jailed eight times since 13, mostly on drug-related convictions; his latest sentence just ended Dec. 14, Lt. Gen. Sanit said. He added that police are still looking for Kittikorn’s accomplice.

A large crowd was gathering at the scene of the crime Friday morning where police planned the “re-enactment,” some holding signs demanding that Kittikorn be executed for his crime.

“Murderers must be executed,” several signs read.
