Police said the body of a 13-year-old Thai girl has been found after she was raped and killed aboard an overnight train.
Police Col. Napanwut Liemsa-nguan said rescuers found the girl’s body on Tuesday near the train tracks in Prachuap Khirikhan province, three days after she went missing.
The girl had been travelling from southern Thailand to Bangkok with her two sisters in a sleeping coach. The train is also popular among backpackers travelling back from Thailand’s island and beach resort destinations.
