A 32-year-old woman's body was found in the Bang Chalong canal, near Wat Bang Chalong Nok, in Samut Prakan province, after she had gone missing for four days. The woman had reportedly argued with her boyfriend about her drinking habit before her disappearance.

 

The Bang Phli Police Station was informed about the body in the canal, leading to a coordinated response from forensic experts, an emergency doctor from Bang Phli Hospital, and volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation.

 

When the authorities reached the scene near the watergate of Wat Bang Chalong Nok, they found the body of the woman, identified as Munrita Paphan, on the canal’s edge. Early evaluation suggested that Munrita had been dead for at least three days as her body was decomposed. Photographs were taken as part of the investigation process.

 

Munrita’s boyfriend, 39-year-old Piyawat, came shortly after to identify her. He recognized her through her distinctive nail polish and tattoos. Piyawat recounted that Munrita went missing about four days ago. A local fisherman said that Munrita was last seen with his child and she had taken her clothes with her before disappearing. Munrita mentioned wanting to go into the water despite not being able to swim and Piyawat had been searching for her since she went missing.

 

According to Piyawat, Munrita possibly jumped into the water intentionally, because she told a fisherman that if she did not come back, it meant she was gone. The couple had recently argued about her drinking.

 

Piyawat was then called in for further questioning by the police about the events leading to the incident.

 

Munrita’s body has been sent to the Institute of Forensic Medicine at Ramathibodi Hospital Chakri Naruebodin for a post-mortem to establish the exact cause of death. Once the investigation concludes, her relatives can claim her body for funeral rites.
