11 bodies found floating off Rayong

Eleven bodies believed to be from Myanmar's Koh Song province were found floating off Ranong province Sunday.

Police were investigating the gruesome findings. They at first found 10 bodies and then another body off Koh Chang in the province's Muang district.

Police suspect they were among dozens of people from Myanmar whose boat capsized and sank on May 31 as they were travelling from Koh Song. Thirty-eight of them survived and were detained by Thai authorities for illegal entry, as they had no travel documents.
