In a deeply distressing incident, the body of a newborn baby boy has been discovered buried in the ground beside a house bathroom in the Tha Tunoi subdistrict of Khueang Nai district. The discovery, made on the afternoon of 23 June, followed reports from local residents of a foul odour emanating from the area.

 

At approximately 15:45, Police Lieutenant Colonel Khajornsak Trakarnthai, an investigator at Khueang Nai Police Station, was alerted to the situation and dispatched officers to the scene. Upon arrival, police found the infant’s body wrapped in a red cloth and buried in the soil next to the bathroom of a residential property. The area had begun to emit a strong smell, prompting the alarm.

 

According to medical personnel, the male infant appeared to be full-term and physically. However, preliminary assessments suggest he had been dead for around three days. It remains unclear whether the baby died prior to being buried or was interred while still alive.

 

Authorities are now awaiting the results of a full forensic autopsy to determine the exact cause and timing of death.

 

Police have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident and are focusing on identifying the mother and any individuals who may have been involved. The owner of the property is also to be questioned as part of the inquiry, but are not believed to have been involved in the incident.
