A tragic event that touched an entire nation is back in focus. Today, January 16, 2025, a reconstruction of the event that led to the death of actress Tangmo was carried out. The question remains: what really happened?
On February 24, 2022, well-known Thai actress Tangmo, born Nida Patcharaveerapong, fell overboard from a speedboat in the Chao Phraya River. Her body was found two days later. Despite official statements that no criminal act was behind the death, the incident has aroused great suspicion and debate in Thailand.
Reconstruction and new theories
On January 16, 2025, experts organized a simulated reconstruction to investigate whether previous testimonies match the physical conditions. The focus was on the safety of the boat and what really happened that night. The reconstruction has shed new light on the incident and strengthens theories that question the official explanation that it was an accident.

Meanwhile, the case has continued to generate significant engagement on social media, with hashtags such as #JusticeForTangmo trending several times.
Tangmo's legacy
