It’s understood the baby’s mother reported her 18 day old son as missing, telling police at Si Satchanalai station that the child had disappeared after she’d left to use the toilet.
At the time, the woman, 22 year old Isaraporn “Oil” Foilueang, said she was in the bathroom for about 10 minutes at about 6.00pm on Thursday evening and that when she came out, the baby was gone, along with the woman’s wallet.
