Hard to tell, it looks a little like a common musk/stinkpot turtle. I was initially thinking Malayan box turtle... but probably a type of musk turtle.

Well idk how i missed this topic before, kinda old but anyway the turtle in the pic is a Malayan Box Turtle. Probably member doesnt come here anymore but they are a shallow water turtle. Hope they figured out correct ID and care for that turtle

No it is not, the turtle was correctly identified as an indian eyed turtle (Morenia petersi)
