AYUTTHAYA: The body of actress Natnicha "Nong In" Cherdchubuppakaree has returned to Bangkok for a religious ceremony.

Ladda Cherdchubuppakaree took the body of her daughter from Thammasat University Hospital on Sunday to Wat Rajasingkorn in Bang Kholaem district, Bangkok.

She stopped at the spot on Highway No.9 in Bang Pa-in district in Ayutthaya where the accident took the life of the actress to perform a religious ceremony, asking spiritual gods to allow her to take the body of Natnicha back to Bangkok.

The 20-year-old actress died on Saturday when her BMW sedan crashed into a big rain tree on the roadside in tambon Chiang Rak Noi. The body was later sent for a postmortem examination at the university's hospital.

Police have not determined the cause of the accident leading to the death.

Pol Col Sa-nga Teerasaranyanon, the Ayutthaya deputy police chief, said the crash site was accident-prone due to the terrains. Drivers unfamiliar with the route could lose control of their vehicles because of a small bridge crossing Wang Deang canal, he added.

Pol Col Sa-nga said a temporary warning sign of the changing road terrains will be installed to alert motorists before they hit the roads during the Songkran holidays.

The car wreckage was hauled to Bang Pa-in police station for inspection by forensic police.
