The body was found on Friday near Ban Tha Yai pier in Phang Nga’s Mueang district.
Police Lieutenant Pheerawit Chaichanyut of Khok Kloi Police Station said officers rushed to the scene with Kusoltham Foundation rescue workers after receiving an emergency call.
The victim – whose identity, address, and nationality are still unknown – was wearing grey shorts and a brown round-neck T-shirt.
Police believe she had been dead for around two days before being found in the murky waters.
A heavy chain had been wrapped tightly around her neck and secured to two concrete dumbbells in what investigators believe was a calculated attempt to keep the body hidden on the seabed.
But despite the grim effort, currents carried her to the surface and she drifted close to land.
“This is a serious case, and we are treating it as a possible murder,” Pol. Lt. Pheerawit said.
“The way the body was weighted down points towards an attempt to conceal it.”
