    According to Pairat, the woman’s brother said that his sister had been bedridden for about two years. Two days ago, her condition worsened and she appeared to have stopped breathing. The brother then placed her in a coffin and drove about 500 kilometers with the supposedly dead woman to a hospital in Bangkok, where the sister wanted to donate her organs, according to the brother. However, the hospital refused to accept the offer because the brother could not produce a death certificate.

    The brother then turned to the temple, which offers free cremations. Because of the missing document, he was also rejected there. The moment he explained to the brother how he could obtain a death certificate, they heard a knock, Pairat said. After making sure that the woman was alive, she was taken to a hospital. According to Pairat, the abbot of the temple assured them that the temple would cover the medical costs.
