Hua Hin: Thai woman trampled to death by elephants on her way to do the washing

A Thai woman told her husband on Thursday that she was on her way to her mother’s to do some washing.

Saichon Srisawat, 50, left with the clothes but when she didn’t come back for dinner her husband Niphon Yimlamai, 71, was concerned. 

A search party was formed and next day his wife was found.

Nong Plap police discovered her naked in undergrowth by the side of the road near her mother’s house in the Huay Sat Yai sub-district of Hua Hin that is within the Kaeng Krachan national park. 

She had been trampled to death by at least two elephants. Her arms and legs were all broken and her skull was fractured. There were elephant footprints all around. 

She had been dead about a day. The body was taken to Hua Hin hospital.
