A Bangkok woman drowned scuba diving in Sattahip after getting tangled in a buoy rope.

Hataya Rimpanavej, 35, still had rope around her wrist when navy divers recovered her body off Koh Jung June 13. She was brought back to Khao Ma Jor Pier where her grief-stricken husband, Pollapat Tanomsub, was waiting.

Pollapat said that he and his family came from Bangkok to relax in Sattahip to celebrate his wife’s birthday which was the day before this tragedy.

Sattahip Rescue chief Pichit Kiakkutan said he received a distress call from a tourist boat in Samae San that a diver had been lost for hours.

A strong undercurrent moved the boat’s anchor from its original point and the diver got tangled up in the line. She couldn’t free herself and ran out of air at more than 13 meters below the surface.
