Pol Col Manasawut Banyong, superintendent of Lahan Sai Police Station, said Ms Buakhai's account was consistent with information gathered during field inquiries. She recalled that in November last year, a well-dressed woman from Nakhon Ratchasima spent three to four days accompanying her grandson. The neighbour, Ms Lawan, said she helped coordinate assistance after seeing the distressing footage.
