Relatives and police found the body of the deceased, Duangjai Charoenraktrakul, chopped into several parts inside their one-storey wooden house in Ban Thap Boek village.
While the body lay face down. Hands and lower legs were cut off and her head savagely slashed and almost unrecognisable. Two knives were left stabbed into her genitals and anus and two more into her back. A long, blood-stained knife was also found dropped nearby, police said.
