Family of deceased army cadet petitions Medical Council
14 Sept 07:40Key points summarised by AI
The family of deceased army cadet Pakapong Tanyakan filed a complaint with the Medical Council, demanding a probe into the conduct of doctors at Phra Mongkutklao military hospital.
The family doubts the hospital's autopsy report, which stated 'sudden cardiac arrest,' as it conflicts with a Central Institute of Forensic Science report showing the cadet suffered 'several broken rib bones,' leading them to suspect foul play.
Scientists confirm six dinosaur footprints in Udon Thani
Today 08:58Key points summarised by AI
Scientists confirmed six fossilized footprints in Udon Thani, Thailand, belong to a carnivorous theropod dinosaur from approximately 120 million years ago.
The footprints, measuring 29x26 cm, indicate a theropod estimated at 1.42 meters tall at the hip and 6.3 meters long, comparable to Siamotyrannus isanensis.
This discovery marks the first confirmed find of fossilized footprints from a meat-eating theropod dinosaur in Thailand, highlighting its unique paleontological significance.
The site will be protected under the Fossil Protection Act, with plans to develop it into a research center and a geological tourism destination.
