Daily News Thai Caption: Who is she related to?

 

Daily News reported that Group Captain Natthaphon Sinphoonphan of the Thai Maritime Enforcement Command Center was informed after the discovery of a female body floating in the sea 12 nautical miles northwest off the southern Thai island of Koh Tao.

 

The body was floating among approximately 20 200 liter plastic oil drums and was taken to the temple of Wat Koh Charoen Santitham on Koh Tao. Police there were informed.

 

There was no ID on the body. It was a woman aged 25-30, quite plump, 160 cms tall, wearing a black and red long sleeve top, brown shorts and black underwear.

 

She had a tattoo saying "Follow" on the left calf and what appeared to be a marijuana leaf.

 

She was wearing a golden anklet on the same leg.

 

An appeal has been made for relatives to come forward.

Earlier on Saturday there were reports of the capsize of a cargo vessel called Jitrasin that plies between Koh Tao and Chumphon.

 

It had left Chumphon at 6pm and was due on the holiday island at 10 pm but did not arrive.

 

It was reported to authorities that it was carrying 2 people but in actual fact there were four aboard.

 

The mention of Koh Tao and the discovery of a body in the same breath always causes concern after a British couple were murdered on the island in 2014.

 

Since then there have also been several deaths, some unexplained, notes ASEAN NOW.

 

Some have dubbed Koh Tao "Death Island" with suggestions that influential people on the island have played a part in the mysteries.

Sad news but at least we can have full confidence that the Koh Tao police force, who are known for their attention to detail, will investigate the case thoroughly. It’s such a caring and honest community that the local families and diving schools are sure to offer their assistance in tracing the ID or woman and finding the truth about why she was found floating dead in the sea, having committed suicide. 

The mysterious Koh Tao triangle by the sound of it ????Rip  

It was quiet because of Covid, but now again???? Maybe Birmese workers to blame instead of decent investigations??? we have seen before

Was she a Burmese woman who fell off a passing cargo ship? That is a tip I received.

Quite Plump ? don't dead bodies normally bloat ? black underwear must be very important to the inquiry.

Sad, RIP lady.

 

Message to self: No trips to Kohn Tao or seas around.

I guess she was one of the unlucky ones?
