Travelman868 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 "Pol.Col. Sonthichai insisted that the dead body found off the coast of Koh Tao shows no marks of murder." The body is decomposed and half eaten and they can't identify any marks of murder. Ain't they clever these Thai Police? RIP whoever you are. And this is why people worry about the ability of the Koh Tao police. How can Pol Col Sonthichai say they do not think it's murder. Surely anyone in their right mind would wait for the FULL PM report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoFarAndNear Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Lazy journalism. This guy was found on Khanom Beach which is in Nakhon Si Thammarat, nowhere near Koh Tao. In fact more than 100km away. R.I.P to the victim. Yeah well, anyways....several bodies washed ashore all up and down that coast this year. Who knows where they all originated from. Maybe the witnessess of the real murder of the brithish couple who got murdered 2 months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umbanda Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) Another rape attent case... I waited 2 days expecting that something will be posted here....but....looks like TV and its Thailand critics miss that one. This was posted in a North Thailand City Times local newspaper....3 days ago. A young married woman was asaulted by a Samui resortl employee when she was trying to go back to her room alone and drunk at 2 AM after a beach party. Her husband left the party earlier leaving her alone. She resisted to the assault and called the Australian Embassy and the police, that arrested the man. I am posting this to make a point.... It is not just in Thailand. In EVERY beach tourist spot in the world, not "smart" people can be a victim of this kind of behavior from the locals, and its is happening a lot more often that you can imagine. Most of the times, victims do not report the crime. I do not blame the victim. I do not justify the crime, but...if you look for trouble... probably you will find it To go diving or swimming alone in the ocean.....it is also to be looking for trouble.. Some people ..like myself..only learn with the experience. But, I still alive to tell about. Edited November 15, 2014 by umbanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another dead body in Koh Tao Nothing new How many is that now, over the last 20 years????? who knows? If this body hadn't washed up nobody would know about it would they? It might be harmless or it might not. Who knows how many bodies taken out to sea? I know of two on another island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOneAmerican Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 GPS tracking bands for all tourists is beginning to sound like a good idea after all.

steven100 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) The body had no distinct marks to suggest foul play was involved , could it be suicide that may have contributed to the cause of death. However, will the police be looking for two migrant workers possibly from Myanmar in case they were in the vicinity at the time.

He might have been lightly battered about the head and then dumped in the sea to drown according to local custom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanthralak 1 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Amazing place this Koh Tao - to say the least! Some Swiss body missing, another body found without ID while another miracle case of two dead youngsters is being pushed around on the desks of Bangkok and London. One of the unhealthiest/most dangerous places on earth? Possibly not but Koh Tao will make it into the statistics of islands ;-) I'm certainly not in any hurry to visit the place. Sounds very dangerous. I believe, I know danger, having lived in Africa, where life is cheap, for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
