A tragic missing person incident has concluded with the discovery of the man’s body in a canal. Two days ago, a construction contractor mysteriously disappeared. Now, the man’s body was found in the Lam Kret Canal, along with his moped. His wife mournfully identified the body and explained that her husband had driven his moped to get more washed sand for his work. Since then, he had not been seen or heard from, leading her to file a missing person’s report. It is now believed that he fell from a bridge two days ago.
