Good Morning Thailand | Autopsy confirms suffocation, some travel restrictions lifted | August 31

A newly-released autopsy report confirmed that 24 year old Jirapong Thanaphiphat, the man who died in police custody in northern Thailand’s Nakhon Sawan province, died of suffocation and not of a drug overdose. The ban on public transportation out of “dark red” zones has been lifted. Following the CCSA’s decision to ease the restrictions, both the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand and the state-run Transport Company announced domestic flights and interprovincial bus services will resume tomorrow. Tourism officials say Thailand should allow Indian tourists to visit the country again as the Covid-19 situation in India has significantly improved.
