Two More Charged With Murder Over Bahrs Scrub Party Death

Both suspects were arrested in Brisbane and are due to face magistrates’ courts this week.

Overview

  • Police charged two men, aged 18 and 19, with murder on Thursday after arrests in Brisbane, bringing the total number of people accused in the case to 11.
  • The accused are linked to an attack at a short‑term rental in Bahrs Scrub that left 21‑year‑old Jongkuch Kur Jongkuch with severe head injuries on July 26 and he died in hospital six days later.
  • Investigators say the group armed themselves before arriving at the party and the violence caused major property damage to vehicles, a home and nearby street areas.
  • Detectives executed multiple search warrants and credited residents and community leaders for providing information that helped secure the recent arrests.
  • Court appearances are scheduled at Beenleigh and Brisbane magistrates’ courts and the investigation remains active as police continue inquiries and prepare files for prosecution.
