Thailand’s Department of Special Investigation (DSI) has submitted additional evidence to the Office of the Attorney-General related to the enforced disappearance of ethnic Karen human rights activist Porlajee “Billy” Rakchongcharoen.

 

DSI Director-General Traiyarit Temahiwong said today (Tuesday) that officials in charge of the case have questioned seven witnesses, to find additional evidence on the DNA of the victim’s mother and from bone fragments found in a burned oil drum, salvaged from a river in the Kaeng Krachan national park, which is expected to be found to belong to the missing victim.

 

Among those questioned by the DSI officials were foreign scientific experts involved in the collection of evidence related to the case and in determining the blood relationship between Porlajee and his relatives through analysis of their DNA, he added.
