A WOMAN found dead alongside her two nieces and brother-in-law at a home in Norfolk has been named by her best friend.
Kanticha Noon, 36, was on a trip from Thailand to her sister’s family home when she was discovered with stab wounds on Friday.
Bartlomiej Kuczynski, 45, his 12-year-old daughter Jasmin and her sister Downreuang, seven, also died.
Cops confirmed on Sunday Bartlomiej and the woman both died of stab wounds to the neck.
A post mortem on Wednesday will determine how the two girls died, Norfolk Police added.
Their mother was at work as a caretaker when the four were found, according to Kanticha’s best friend Naty Wathanakul.
She told how the aunt arrived in the UK on December 27 and was apparently due to go home next month.
Describing Kanticha as a “caring” woman, Naty told The Mirror: “She loved her nieces, I always saw their pictures together.
“She is a single woman, no boyfriend, no husband, that’s why she spent most of her time with those lovely girls.”
A pile of floral tributes, and two unicorn toys, had been left a short distance from the house in Costessey, near Norwich, by Monday.
The items were left as the house remained taped off by police and with a number of marked vehicles still at the scene.
One tribute read: “Jasmine, you were such a sweet, caring girl, yourself and your sister didn’t deserve to have your lives taken away.
“You would always be smiling in primary school. Fly high beautiful girls.”
Another said: “You will be missed. I’m sorry to whoever was in the family and is going through it. Sorry Jasmin.”
Kanticha ran UK-based kid’s clothing store Malishop with her sister.
Norfolk Police said they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.
Sources said Bartlomiej called police at 6am on Friday but they didn’t send any officers until a second call from a member of the public an hour later.
The force has have since referred themselves to the police watchdog.
It also referred itself to the watchdog for attending the home on December 14 in connection with a missing person enquiry.
