Through a communiqué, Venezuela “encourages the work that the Thai authorities have begun to investigate the events that led to this reprehensible act of violence, which had innocent children as its main objective”.
According to the investigations, the massacre – where 23 children died – was carried out by a former police officer, who would have murdered his wife and son, before taking his own life.

Likewise, it encourages the efforts that the Thai authorities have initiated in order to investigate the events that led to this reprehensible act of violence, which had innocent children as its main objective.”
