The Disappearance of Bung Siriboon
On Thursday 2 June 2011, 13 year old Siriyakorn Siriboon, or Bung as she’s commonly known, had breakfast with her Mum, Vannida, and her older sister, Pang, before she left her home in Boronia, Victoria, to walk to school, as she did every weekday.
Bung was wearing her blue and white checked school uniform and her dark blue zip-front school jacket and carrying a backpack. She was seen by a neighbour a short time later in Elsie Street, walking towards Albert Avenue.
Bung didn’t arrive at school that day or return home thereafter. Somewhere during the 700 metre walk to Boronia Heights College, Bung Siriboon vanished and she hasn’t been seen or heard from since...
