"If you lose someone, no matter how many years, you won’t be able to forget."

Sitanun Satsaksit is the older sister of Wanchalearm Satsaksit, a Thai refugee who was abducted from his residence in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on 4 June 2020.

Sitanun and her legal team have spent the last year gathering evidence regarding her brother's disappearance, and submitted them to both the Thai and Cambodian authorities. However, official investigation seems to have stalled, while Wanchalearm's fate remains unknown.

Prachatai speaks to Sitanun about the progress in her brother's case, and how her life has changed since she made the decision to do everything she can to find and call for justice for her brother.
