Kanchanaburi: Police at Sangkhlaburi Police Station in Kanchanaburi province have detained the 17-year-old uncle and half-sister of 13-year-old Nong Angun and remanded them to Thong Pha Phum Provincial Court.
According to Thai News Agency, both the uncle and half-sister confessed to using a sack to cover Nong Angun's head and strangle her to death before disposing of her body in a rubber plantation.
