Nida ‘Tangmo’ Patcharaveerapong: Thailand actress, 37, found dead in river

The body of Thai actress Nida “Tangmo” Patcharaveerapong was recovered from the Chao Phraya river in capital Bangkok, two days after she fell from a boat.

After a 38-hour-long search, her body was found by her brother on Saturday about 300 metres away from Pibulsongkram pier in Nonthaburi province.

The 37-year-old actress reportedly fell into the river on Thursday night while on a boat trip with her manager and four other people.

Dayos Detjob, her teary-eyed brother, told local media he had “come to take her back home” and the rest of the investigation would be up to the police.

The owner of the speedboat Tanupat Lerttaweewit and the driver Paibul Trikanchananan were formally charged with causing wrongful death by negligence. Mr Lerttaweewit is also facing additional charges of using a boat with an expired license.
