Thai authorities today said they are being pressured by some foreign officials to release the remaining bodies of victims from a plane crash on the resort island of Phuket.

AUTHORITIES yesterday found the two flight data recorders from a plane that crashed and killed 89 people on Thailand’s resort island of Phuket, while an airline official said wind shear may have doomed the flight.

Rescuers were hoping for “individual miracles” of survival as they combed the beaches and islands of southern Thailand today for missing tourists and locals swept away by earthquake-powered tidal waves.
