She said she found a drink in her refrigerator had an unusual smell. When she threw it away, she noticed the ants that came to eat it died.
The woman and her daughter also quarreled frequently, said Pol Col Alongkot.
Pol Maj Gen Daoloy said the investigators were not convinced by Ms Kanchana’s confessions. The investigation would be expanded as the two male suspects had criminal records.
