Authorities have identified a burial site in Chonburi linked to the disappearance of two Russian siblings, as suspects remain in custody.
According to a report by Khaosod Online Thailand on July 31, 2026, police have taken a suspect identified as 'Pong' to a forest area in Chak Ngaew, Huai Yai, Bang Lamung, Chonburi, to point out the location where he allegedly buried two missing Russian siblings. The siblings had been reported missing along with their motorcycle since the early hours of July 26, 2026.
Prior to this development, investigators discovered the siblings' motorcycle, which had been dismantled and hidden in a forest in the Bang Lamung district. Following an extensive search involving over 100 officers, police apprehended two suspects, 43-year-old 'Pong' and 39-year-old 'Thong,' in Sa Kaeo province while they were attempting to flee.
For residents and travelers in the Chonburi area, this case highlights an ongoing criminal investigation involving serious allegations. While the suspects are currently in custody and assisting with the investigation, authorities have not yet confirmed reports circulating in the media regarding the potential discovery of three additional victims. The investigation remains active, with forensic teams and local officials continuing to process the site. Further details are expected as the police investigation proceeds and forensic evidence is analyzed.
