Woman’s body found in suitcase with dumbbells in Rayong
A woman’s body was discovered inside a suitcase weighted down with dumbbells in Ban Chang district, Rayong province, yesterday, February 7.
Local police were alerted by a fisherman near a golf course who noticed a foul odour emanating from the suitcase. Emergency services were called to the scene in Ban Chang subdistrict, where they found a large, locked black suitcase emitting a strong, unpleasant smell at the forest’s edge near Khlong Phayun.
Upon cutting open the suitcase, rescue personnel found the naked body of a woman inside, along with two dumbbells weighing 10 kilogrammes each. The body was in an advanced state of decomposition, making identification difficult due to the inability to recognise the face, although the hair was shoulder-length.
The fisherman, who was the first to discover the suitcase, found it while fishing, as his lure got caught on the suitcase. After retrieving it to the bank, he noticed the strong odour and immediately contacted emergency services. Initial investigations are set to include an autopsy to determine the cause of death, reported KhaoSod.
Police are also gathering evidence, reviewing nearby CCTV footage, and working to identify who abandoned the suitcase to uncover the true circumstances surrounding the incident.
In similar news, a routine package check at a logistics shop in Sa Kaeo took a grim turn when staff discovered two dried infant bodies inside a parcel destined for Chiang Mai. Police are now investigating a self-proclaimed medium who allegedly purchased the bodies for 10,000 baht with the intent to resell them to Chinese tourists.
The disturbing find was made on Thursday afternoon, February 6, when a man attempted to send the package via a private logistics service in Aranyaprathet district. Staff grew suspicious and insisted on inspecting the parcel, uncovering two small, blackened corpses. Horrified, they immediately contacted the police.
