A desperate search for a missing woman in Lampang ended in heartbreak after her body was discovered lodged in a drainage pipe, four days after she was last seen.

 

The woman, aged 46, had been reported missing by her daughter, who made an emotional appeal on social media via the “Jaehom City” Facebook group. She had left her home in Pong Don Subdistrict, Jaehom District, Lampang Province, and never returned.

 

On 24 June, a coordinated search was launched by the Lampang Rescue Association (Jaehom unit), forensic experts, officers from Jaehom Police Station and local district officials. The team combed areas along an irrigation canal near Ban Huai Sanao in the hope of locating the missing woman.

 

At around 16:00, authorities were alerted to a body found stuck in a drainage pipe near Ban Wangsak in Jaehom Subdistrict. Rescue personnel and police investigators rushed to the scene and confirmed that the body was that of a woman. An initial examination revealed a head injury.

 

The deceased was later identified by relatives as the missing woman they had been searching for. The superintendent of Jaehom Police Station, ordered the body to be transferred to Lampang Hospital for a full forensic examination to determine the exact cause of death.

 

While investigations are ongoing, the community remains in shock at the outcome. The family, who had hoped for a safe return, are now left grieving and seeking answers.
