This is the terrifying moment a crazed ex-husband broke into his former wife's house and kidnapped her in Thailand.

Vengeful Jeerawat Ongeam, 38, followed his former lover Wisaruta, 48, to her new boyfriend's home before smashing through the fragile plasterboard wall and diving at the woman in Nakhon Pathom province on September 20 evening.

Dramatic CCTV footage shows the man scrambling around inside the room. Seconds later, he had his ex-wife Wisaruta's neck locked in his arms while he dragged her screaming into the street outside.

Terrified former wife Wisaruta, whose new man had been out at the time, said: ‘It was the second time that my ex-husband kidnapped me. We broke up three months ago, but he could not move on.'

Jeerawat put the woman in his car and drove to Phetchaburi province before driving onto a dirt path until they reached the Lau forest in Kaen Krachan National Park.

The weary woman escaped while her ex slept and she contacted the police. Officers from the Sampran police station took her back to her house as she refused to file a complaint.

She said: ‘We were together for six years. The first two years were good. In our third year, we were always fighting.

‘He became violent, so I left him, but we reconciled after a while. After that, the fighting became more frequent, so I decided to permanently break up with him, but he didn't believe that. He thinks I have a new boyfriend and he was mad.'

Despite refusing to press charges, her bitter ex was taken by cops to the police station for questioning, where he apologised.

Speaking with the police, he said: ‘I apologise for my violent behaviour. I was under pressure and facing debt problems.'

The ex-wife was unhurt, although traumatised from the incident. She plans on filing for a restraining order against the crazed ex.
