Chilling cassava discovery: Unidentified woman’s body unearthed near Huay Yai highway
A chilling discovery surfaced in Chon Buri province when an unidentified woman’s body was found in a cassava plantation near Highway 331 Sattahip-Nakhon Ratchasima in Huay Yai. The body was discovered on Saturday, December 2, hidden approximately 50 metres into the jungle from the main road. The age of the victim is estimated to be between 35 and 40 years old.
The Huay Yai police were called to the scene, where they observed that the unidentified woman was wearing a red T-shirt and boxer shorts, without any underwear. The condition of the body suggested that she had been dead for about three days prior to the discovery.
No personal identification was found on the unidentified woman’s body, which made the task of identifying the victim more challenging. Further, the state of the remains rendered it difficult for clear signs of injury to be identified, although abrasions were noted on the right leg.
Adding to the mysterious circumstances surrounding the discovery, the woman was found covered with a white blanket adorned with cartoon patterns. Tucked inside the blanket was a “yant khai” fabric talisman, a spiritual amulet used in Thai culture to ward off evil spirits.
This particular detail led locals to speculate that an attempt might have been made to protect the body from malevolent spirits. These items were subsequently collected by authorities as part of the evidence.
As it stands, the cause of the incident has yet to be determined. Investigators are working tirelessly to ascertain if this was a result of a criminal act or a non-criminal incident. The body has since been transported to the Police Hospital, where a detailed autopsy will be carried out.
This autopsy is expected to shed light on the cause of death and hopefully, provide clues to the woman’s identity, reported Pattaya News.
The Huay Yai police urge anyone with information relating to the unidentified woman to come forward. The case remains under active investigation, with the authorities keen on establishing the sequence of events leading up to the woman’s death.
