A body was found on Phangan Island and is believed to be a missing Russian man.

 

Yesterday, (October 12th), the Phangan Police were notified from a Myanmar national who was exploring a wooded area that human remains were found in a thick forest near the Kee Rad Hill which is one kilometer from the Phangan Hospital.

 

Police and medical staffers arrived at the scene in the forest to find the badly decayed remains of a man. No signs of a struggle or physical altercation was found on his body. Police believed that the man died at least one month before his body was recovered. Police also believed the man had been mentally ill and possibly in psychosis and became lost and confused in the jungle, eventually passing away from dehydration.

Very sad.  Shame he couldn't get help sooner.  It's amazing how social media pics can hide so much.

So sad. A month before his body was discovered and just 1 km from a hospital makes it even more tragic.

Yeah, I know! If it were 20 days and 1,5 km, we could have felt a little bit better.
