The bodies of a Swedish family, the two young daughters nestling in their mother's arms, were found in the rubble of a Thai hotel that collapsed last week, Reuter reports from Bangkok. The bodies of the Thai-born wife and daughters of Swedish businessman Barry Ahrens were recovered by rescuers late yesterday. Ahrens' body was located but not recovered from the debris. The death toll has reached 114.
