NONTHABURI — A search is underway for 46-year-old singer Thaman Taypun, a former member of Thai boy band Dragon5, after he left his home in Nonthaburi early Thursday morning and failed to return.
Thaman, known as Tay, reportedly left his home in Bang Kruai district at about 04:00 on 6 August to ride a bicycle. His girlfriend later filed a missing-person report with Bang Kruai police, saying she feared he may have come to harm.
JS100 radio said Thaman is 185 centimetres tall. He was last seen riding a cream-coloured bicycle towards Rama VII Bridge, according to CCTV footage. He was wearing cycling clothes, carrying a black backpack and was not wearing a helmet.
He left without his mobile phone or wallet, according to the missing-person announcement. Anyone who has seen him is asked to contact JS100 at 1808 or 1137.
His girlfriend, identified as 42-year-old Walaiphan Srinasaphan, told reporters that his disappearance was unusual. She said he normally took his phone with him when cycling and returned home immediately afterwards.
She said she contacted his close friends, but none had seen him. Walaiphan then reported the matter to police so officers could help locate him.
