Unidentified Man's Handless Body Discovered in Central Thailand

[snoop1130]

 

A man's body, with both hands missing, was discovered on a sugarcane farm in the central province of Nakhon Sawan, Thailand. The identity of the deceased is still unknown as police search for his severed hands initially.

 

The farm owner, Boonyoung Phothong, 53, found the body during his routine crop inspection. Boonyoung, who believes the deceased was not a local, reported the find to the police at Phayuha Khiri Station.

 

According to the police, the body, wrapped in a red sleeping bag, had no personal belongings nor any identification documents. The only item found was a necklace with a Buddhist amulet. The man's body was sent to the Police General Hospital for a post-mortem.

 

 

Officers had trouble identifying the deceased as he was believed to have been dead for at least two weeks before being discovered. They are now examining local security camera footage to identify both the victim and the perpetrator.

 

The area's community leader, Malee Phudtaraksa, 50, highlighted that some CCTV cameras are located around five kilometers from where the corpse was found, though it's possible they might not have recorded any related incident. Like Boonyoung, Malee confirms that no one from the local community has been reported missing.

Think the police have to find the hands first!

Obviously the victim was a thief and this murder was a message to others.
