Panumas sae Tae, a 41-year-old businesswoman, died in the flooded underpass that led to the Golden Nakara housing estate in Bangkok’s Prawet district early on Thursday. The underpass, which goes under a railway bridge, was built to provide access to residents of the estate. Prawet District Office’s director Tanasit Methpanmuang led a team to inspect the tunnel on Friday morning. The underpass is about 95.4 metres long, 10 metres wide, and three metres high. Tanasit said there are two similar underpasses at housing estates in the Prawet district.
