Authorities arrested a suspect in the fatal beating of 25-year-old Ko Tin Zaw Htwe, a Myanmar-born LGBTQ TikTok influencer, after his body was found in a forest near Phathong village in Mae Sot District. Htwe went missing for nearly two days before being discovered beneath a tree, face down, with his underwear and sweatpants pulled down. Investigators found a blood-covered wooden stick believed to be the murder weapon and recovered personal items including a shoulder bag, cosmetics, a bank book, and condoms; his jewelry and cellphone were missing. Sources say he vanished after receiving a social media call for help, which is believed to have been used to lure him to the location.
