Ah -- yes. His daughter and her mother-in-law are still simply
"missing", but I think they must -- like so many many thousand others
-- be dead.
The grandson of the King of Thailand, I learn from my local paper, is
also dead. The local paper carried the story because he, an autist, was
helped by a local special education expert, married to a Thai, at the
request of the Thai embassy in the UK, and they became friends.
