Man missing after Thai speedboat accident

Jason Parnell, 46, was visiting the country with his wife Puja when a huge wave capsized their boat off the coast of a paradise island.

Divers are still searching for the missing tourist. Mrs Parnell escaped unharmed.

In pictures shared on social media, the couple are seen enjoying beaches, meals, and dances together in the days before the boat trip.

One post from earlier this week read: “Happy 1st anniversary to my wonderful wife.”

At least three other people, including Briton Monica Cozma, 28, were killed. Rough waters and strong winds contributed to the Angthong Discovery Tour vessel being overturned with 32 tourists and four crew members on board near the popular destination of Koh Samui.

A German man and a woman from Hong Kong were also among the dead, Koh Samui authorities said.
