Court Denies Bail for Uncle and Sister in Nong Ogn Case Sent to Kanchanaburi Juvenile Detention Center

Court denies bail. "Uncle and sister." In the Nong Ogn case, the suspects were sent to the Kanchanaburi juvenile detention center. Meanwhile, the father came to collect his daughter's body from the forensic institute and expressed ongoing suspicions about family members harming each other.


On 7 June 2026, reporters reported that preparations were underway at the Dharma Sangwet Hall, Wat Lijea, Village No. 4, Prang Phlo Subdistrict, Sangkhla Buri District, Kanchanaburi Province, for the funeral ceremony of Nong Ogn. Police Lieutenant Colonel Narong Humkhao, principal of the Border Patrol Police School at Ban Radar, along with teachers and students, assisted in preparing the venue to receive Nong Ogn's body, which was to be returned from the forensic institute in Bangkok.

Police Lieutenant Colonel Narong Humkhao said that the merit-making ceremony for Nong Ogn would last three days, but there would be no traditional funeral chanting according to Mon beliefs because Nong Ogn was under 12 years old. The ceremony would only allow wreaths to be presented as condolences, with no chanting. The cremation is scheduled for the afternoon of 10 June 2026. He expressed condolences to Nong Ogn's family.

Meanwhile, Police Lieutenant Jirapong Koedranu, an investigator at Sangkhla Buri Police Station, along with officers, took the 17-year-old uncle and 13-year-old sister to the Thong Pha Phum Court. Later, at 13:00, the Thong Pha Phum Provincial Court issued a statement with the following content.

According to the investigator of Sangkhla Buri Police Station, a 13-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy were accused of intentional homicide and jointly hiding or moving a corpse. A request was made on 7 June 2026 at 11:00 to review the detention of the child and youth according to the law.

After the court's hearing, it was ordered that, after considering the facts from the petitioner's inquiry and documents, the court found that both suspects were indeed accused of the crimes as charged. The suspects had concealed, moved, or destroyed evidence, causing interference with the case. Considering the evidence and the impact on family relationships and the sensitive nature of the case, and prioritizing the protection of the rights and best interests of the child and youth, as well as their psychological treatment and rehabilitation by psychologists, the court decided to send the child and youth to the Kanchanaburi Juvenile Observation and Protection Center.

At the Police Hospital's Institute of Forensic Medicine, Nong Ogn's father presented documents to collect his daughter's body along with the autopsy report from the forensic doctors at the Police Hospital, to take her back to her hometown in Kanchanaburi Province, amid an atmosphere filled with grief.

Nong Ogn's father revealed, "I still have concerns about family members harming each other because I had never seen them argue before, only minor issues. The cause of the quarrel might have been related to a phone, but it shouldn't have escalated to this extent. After Nong Ogn's sister confessed, we have not yet talked about it."
