Thai woman suspected of cyanide poisonings is charged with 14 murders

Sararat Rangsiwuthaporn accused of killing friends, an ex-partner and police officers known to her

A Thai woman accused of poisoning people with cyanide has been charged with 14 counts of murder, while her ex-husband is facing charges of fraud, police said, in one of the country's worst suspected serial killing cases.

Sararat Rangsiwuthaporn was arrested last week after suspicions were raised over the death of her friend Siriporn Khanwong. The two had met to release fish at a pier in Ratchaburi on 14 April when Siriporn suddenly collapsed and died at the riverbank.
