169 bodies exhumed in Rayong mass graves

Don't rush to pass judgement on 169-body mass grave: Army chief

Army chief General Prayuth Chan-ocha on Friday urged for calm following the discovery of three mass graves where 169 bodies were buried under suspicious circumstances in Rayong.

"Authorities should be able to give a scientific explanation on the 169 bodies," he said.

On Thursday, police exhumed for forensic checks on suspicion that the bodies might be linked to the disappearance of the red shirts during the last year's riots.

The bodies were buried in separate burial grounds of three temples.

Comment - This will be interesting to say the least. If it turns out to be true, then I wonder how they will worm their way out of this one, as they know no bounds this lot. :shock:

As usual, the Bangkok Post gives a bit more detail and explanation. And if they were Red Shirts, why would those behind it not totally dispose of the remains, but let them sit to be discovered. Pete :cheers:

Personally I don't think we can simply assume the army is to blame, and secondly, why do colors have to come into the picture? This whole red sympathy thing is really getting a little bit boring if you ask me.

Having read the articles again, I can't actually believe that a "certain" crowd would stoop so low. Never mind the military, has anyone phoned the CEO's brother?
