Man questioned after Hong Kong fashion model partner stabbed to death in Bangkok

Thai police have questioned a man suspected of killing his 24-year-old partner, an international model who previously worked in Hong Kong.

Media outlets in the country said on Tuesday that Gwendoline Cretton, a Swiss passport holder, was killed at her residence in Bangkok’s Prawet district on Thursday night last week.

She was reportedly stabbed to death, and three men – the suspect and two neighbours who tried to help the man who yelled for help – carried her body to a car.

Surveillance camera footage showed Cretton walking her dog at around 5.30pm outside her home in the evening, 45 minutes before she was heard yelling from inside her home, followed by the man’s car going back and forth.

Local media reported the victim was found with a knife wound to her neck and another elsewhere on her body.

Some local media said the man was a Hongkonger who initially claimed the woman had killed herself due to depression.
