Police Lieutenant Pheerawit Chaichanyut of Khok Kloi Police Station said officers rushed to the scene with Kusoltham Foundation rescue workers after receiving an emergency call. The victim – whose identity, address, and nationality are still unknown – was wearing grey shorts and a brown round-neck T-shirt. Police believe she had been dead for around two days before being found in the murky waters. A heavy chain had been wrapped tightly around her neck and secured to two concrete dumbbells in what investigators believe was a calculated attempt to keep the body hidden on the seabed. But despite the grim effort, currents carried her to the surface and she drifted close to land. "This is a serious case, and we are treating it as a possible murder," Pol. Lt. Pheerawit said. "The way the body was weighted down points towards an attempt to conceal it." The body has been sent for a full autopsy to determine the cause of death and whether the woman was alive before entering the water. Local leaders and neighbouring districts have been told to check missing persons reports for anyone matching her description. Cops will meanwhile scour CCTV from the pier and surrounding waterways for suspicious movements in the days before the grim find. Anyone with information – particularly those who may have noticed unusual activity near Ban Tha Yai pier – is urged to contact police immediately. The case echoes a similar discovery in February when a fisherman in Rayong found a woman's decomposed body inside a locked suitcase weighted with two 10kg dumbbells. Her identity also remains unknown. More to follow...

Body of woman found chained 'by the neck' and tied underwater by two dumbbells
A woman's body has reportedly been found chained by the neck and tied underwater by two concrete dumbbells at a popular fishing spot in Thailand. The corpse was discovered floating near the Ban Tha Yai pier in Phang Nga on August 8 - sparking grisly murder investigation. Police Lieutenant Pheerawit Chaichanyut of Khok Kloi Police Station said officers responded with rescue workers after receiving a call from shocked locals. The victim, whose identity, address, and nationality are still unknown, was wearing grey shorts and a brown round-neck T-shirt, The Thaiger reports. Police estimate she had been dead for around two days before being found in the murky waters. Officers found a heavy chain wrapped tightly around the woman's neck, secured with two concrete dumbbells. Investigators believe the method was intended to weigh the body down and conceal it underwater. But, despite this, the body still floated to the surface and drifted close to shore, where it was discovered. The corpse has been sent for a full autopsy to confirm the cause of death and whether the victim was alive before entering the water. Police have not ruled out murder, due to the weighted restraints suggesting foul play. Local community leaders and neighbouring districts have been contacted and asked to check for any missing persons that match the victim's description. CCTV footage from the pier and surrounding waterways is also being reviewed in an attempt to trace suspicious movements in the days before the discovery, reported KhaoSod. 'This is a serious case, and we are treating it as a possible murder,' Pol. Lt. Pheerawit said. 'The way the body was weighted down points towards an attempt to conceal it.'
