A Thai farmer stumbled upon the dead body of an unidentified man in a roadside forest in the southern province of Chumphon. The man’s neck was bound with an electric wire and his two wrists were handcuffed.

The farmer, 58 year old Sunan, told Channel 3 that he took his cows to the spot every day in the morning and evening to graze. Sunan went to the area as usual yesterday, January 7, and noticed a suspicious object in the forest, about 30 to 40 metres away from the roadside.

 

Sunan took a closer look and believed he spotted a dead body but wasn’t sure so returned to the village and reported his discovery to a police volunteer, a 46 year old woman named Nongnuch.

Nongnuch and her husband went to examine the object and confirmed to Sunan that it was a corpse. Nongnuch said there were a lot of flies on the object and the unpleasant smell was emanating from the area. She then reported the matter to Mueang Chunphon Police Station.

My thoughts too

 

Can't the police just arrest the first Burmese labourers that they find?
