Authorities to find safest way to open containner : top forensic doctor

"Lifting the containers from the sea is ruled out because it will cost a lot of money," Porntip said,

"But we will be looking for the safest way to cut open the containers underwater".

She was speaking after she reported the latest progress on the mysteriouscontainer case to Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.

Porntip has been assigned to look into the containers after they caught the media spotlight and rumours spread that the bodies of those who died in the Black May incident were inside. The Black May incident referred to a bloody crackdown on prodemocracy protesters in Bangkok 17 years ago. After the turmoil ended, dozens of protesters never returned home and were feared dead.
