Police have launched a murder investigation after the body of a man with a fatal neck wound was discovered floating in the sea off Rayong province early morning on 3 May.

 

At approximately 07:00, local fishermen alerted officers from the Phe Police Station after spotting a body adrift roughly two nautical miles offshore, between Suan Son Beach in Klaeng Subdistrict and Samet Island in Phe Subdistrict, Mueang District. The fishermen had anchored nearby to prevent the body from drifting further due to strong currents.

 

Rescue crews from Sawang Porakun Rayong Foundation, forensic officers, and police responded quickly, retrieving the deceased and bringing him ashore at the NS Land junction.

 

The victim, believed to be between 50 and 60 years old and approximately 170 cm tall, was wearing a long-sleeved black shirt and black tracksuit trousers. A deep stab wound was found on the left side of his neck, leading investigators to suspect foul play. Preliminary examinations indicate the man had been dead for at least 24 hours before being discovered.

 

According to local residents, the man was seen at Ban Phe Market two to three days earlier, though there were no known reports of conflict or altercation at the time.

 

Officers from the Phe Police Station’s investigative division are now reviewing CCTV footage from local passenger piers and fishing docks to determine whether the man boarded a vessel voluntarily or whether his body was transported and dumped at sea post-mortem in an attempt to conceal the crime.

 

The man’s identity has not yet been confirmed, and police are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
