On May 17, 2024, local fishermen reported a heavily decaying, headless body floating in the sea near the Cha-Am Beach viewpoint, approximately one kilometer from the shore.

 

The Cha-Am Police Station immediately responded, coordinating with the Third Marine and Coastal Resources Department, Cha-Am Municipality, Cha-Am District Administration, Phetchaburi Marine Department, and Sawang Sanphet Rescue.

 

Two patrol boats and a jet ski were dispatched to locate and retrieve the body, which was eventually found about 1.5 kilometers from the shore. The body, identified as male, was heavily decomposed and missing its head, hands, and feet. It was wearing a short-sleeved t-shirt and shorts and was floating face down.

Looks like a serious hit.

Has suicide been ruled out ?

In the original story, it is suggested that as the body had been in the water a long time; marine animals had eaten the extremities. 

 

So not necessarily a murder. 

Until identity his nickname must be suicide Bob 🤔

The condition of the body, with missing limbs and bite marks, suggested that marine animals had gnawed off the head, hands, and feet.
