The commander of Police Station 2 confirmed the remains of Choi Bahon Yeodin, 56, found at the dump site. Doctors said they were human bones. But forensic testing must be done to confirm the DNA and again compare it to the accused person – that’s where the examination of the evidence ends. Will start searching again tomorrow
On September 20, 2023 at 4:45 PM, progress in the murder case of 2-year-old daughter buried in clay, Bol. Major General Nopasin Poonsawat, Deputy Commissioner, Metropolitan Police Bureau, Pol. The Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Thai Police, General Theerathej Thamsudhee, as the Commander-in-Chief of OBEC. Major General Wadi Asauthamangun and Pol. Major General Athabon Anusith, Commander-in-Chief P.M. 2 along with Forensic Division officers came to inspect the area where Mrs Jesada said she had left her child’s body in the Phra Phum temple area. 56 around Soi Fahonyothin via Fahonyothin Road
The incident site is 200 meters from Soi Fahonyothin 56, next to a gas station. The Phra Phum shrine was moved about 50 meters from its original location, with cement and stone fragments scattered across the area along a path about 100 meters long. Have to wait for verification
Authorities received information from Ms Jesada that a dead son’s body was dumped at the spot in 2016, another son’s body was dumped in 2018, and then in 2020, a gas station was built next door. and partially adjusted from grassy forest to open area. And the temple of Phra Frapham was moved from its original location. And because of the passage of so much time the condition of the place where the bodies of the two children were dumped has changed so much. So the authorities devised a plan to gather evidence at the location. Before entering, inspect the condition of the dump site for legal evidence.
Pol Major General Nopbasin, who spent 50 minutes inspecting the dumping site, said that the child’s body was dumped based on information received from 2016 and 2018. The past was a reed forest. Water was standing there. Officials contacted the land owner. After learning that the land had been filled after the construction of the gas station, the Basic Education Commission office should first check for the child’s remains. The next plan is to dig using a small backhoe to open up the soil. Authorities must do everything they can to find legitimate evidence to continue the search. At the same time, the Bhumibol and Forensic Hospital are coordinating with the Police Hospital and all other hospitals to check whether or not there are child bodies from the garbage trucks. I would like to advertise through the media that anyone who sees or knows of any information about the dead children between 2016 and 2018 is asked to report them to the police, asking them to investigate immediately.
Later, at 6:00 pm on September 20, coordination officials brought a backhoe to excavate the area where Mrs. Jesada had dumped her child’s body. By digging and opening the soil, it was found that the water pipe was broken and damaged while digging. Due to this, the officers have to act cautiously in their work. The search for the abandoned child’s body must continue
Later, at 7:00 pm on September 20th, forensic officers found a plastic bag with dirt. Inside the bag was a bone measuring 13 cm long and approximately 6 cm in size, which was recorded and kept as evidence. Whether it is an animal or a human bone should be examined. If it’s a human bone, DNA. And to be compared with the accused
Later, at 7:25 p.m., after finding the two bones, authorities coordinated with a doctor at Bhumibol Hospital to conduct an examination. The bone is 13 centimeters long and human bone. The upper forearm is approximately 2 years old.
Most recently, on September 20 at 7:40 p.m., the commander of the 2nd Police Station, Pol Maj. Gen. Athabon Anusit, testified during the interrogation of the suspect that he dumped the body of his child in this area. While coordinating with Aadhaar department officials and investigating officers from Sai Mai Police Station and related officials came to examine additional evidence. The incident site is believed to be in this area as the conditions at the time of the incident and the current conditions differed several years ago. Give the first time OBEC inspects and collects evidence, so they dig up the soil using a small backhoe. Find additional resources
From the excavation, bones were found which were used as evidence in the case. So, the forensic doctor was called. Check out Bhumibol Hospital and come help. Initially, it was believed to be human bones from about 2 years old, but whether this is true or not is still a matter of speculation. In the next step, investigators will send the bones to a forensic institute. A DNA test should be done and compared with the suspects and accused in the case to get clarity. Is it a human bone? Is it related to the accused or not?
The 2nd Region’s commander said more forensic testing is now needed to reconfirm clarity and accuracy. Now we need to stop checking the evidence. An additional team of officers will be assembled tomorrow to examine further evidence and will resume the search tomorrow.
