A headless body has been discovered on a remote Prachuap Khiri Khan province beach early today (Tuesday).
Police report that a local fisherman found the body of the man just after midnight. The body was found, face down, partially covered in sand, and wearing red underwear.
The body was found at Ban Khok Tahome beach, in Moo 9 village of Ang Thong tambon, Thap Sakae district, south of Hua Hin.
The fisherman who found the body contacted police, who sought help from the Sawang Rungruang Thammasathan Thap Sakae rescue foundation to retrieve the body.
A doctor determined that the man had died at least a month ago as the body started to decay due to exposure of sunlight and the warm water.
Police speculate that the man could be a fishing crew member washed off his boat when the region was hit by tropical storm Pabuk.
