webfact Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Market dredging turns up bones, pipe bombThe NationBANGKOK: -- Police yesterday submitted 65 pieces of bone, discovered along with a tear gas cylinder, a pipe bomb and a giant firecracker, during the dredging of Pradongmanutum Canal.The bones have been taken for examination to the Institute of Forensic Science at the Police General Hospital to see if they were human.A source reported that forensic doctors had not yet reached a conclusion from DNA testing, although some pieces looked like human leg and pelvic bones.The canal dredging work is to turn this area near Government House into a floating market by February 12, according to Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha's instruction.Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/national/Market-dredging-turns-up-bones-pipe-bomb-30253227.html-- The Nation 2015-02-03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siampolee Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Many rumours concerning the fate of people who were involved in the recent demonstrations as well as others over the years, a little early to judge no doubt how long the original owner of the bones has been dead and of course what his or her connections to whatever group may have been. Perhaps there may be a clue if there is a proven link twixt the tear gas canister and the deceased. However the truth is really going to be about as rare as ''hens teeth'' pure conjecture which under the circumstances is about the only ''flexible'' course open in the matter.

Powerhousesteve Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Something that we would all do well to remember is that this is not just limited to Thailand, human remains are regularly discovered in all countries, it happens in England very often, including young children sacrificed by Africans practicing witchcraft, below is a link (one of hundreds) about human remains found on the banks of The Thames (not far from the seat of power) always in these cases it is best to wait until some proof of a crime before we pass judgement. http://www.newsshopper.co.uk/news/10210086.Greenwich_dog_walker_finds_human_remains_on_Thames_shore/ http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2013/03/human-tissue-found-in-burger-meat-2608178.html Edited February 3, 2015 by Powerhousesteve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
