A 63-year-old Swedish man was found dead inside a condominium in Bang Si Mueang, Nonthaburi, after neighbours reported disturbing noises and later a strong odour coming from the unit, police said. Officers entered room 93/319 on the third floor and discovered the body of Andreas Alexander Andersson. He was confirmed dead at the scene and a formal post-mortem to establish the cause of death will be carried out.

Neighbours said they had previously heard repeated noises from the apartment over a period of time, described as sounds of arguing and objects striking walls. The disturbances reportedly continued before stopping suddenly around two weeks prior to the discovery of the body. After the noises ceased, residents later noticed a persistent foul smell and later observed liquid seeping from the unit.
One neighbour, identified only as “Tum”, 37, a civil servant living next door, described the resident as largely private and rarely seen interacting with others in the building. He added that the man was often seen wearing rubber gloves and protective coverings over his feet when disposing of rubbish outside.
Police from Bang Si Mueang Station were alerted to the condominium after concerns were raised about the odour. Officers forced entry into the third-floor room and found the body lying face down, wearing only underwear. Inside the apartment, investigators reported seeing bottles of toilet-cleaning chemicals and multiple cans of insecticide, and the room was described as being in a state of disarray.
Emergency responders from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation and forensic doctors from the Institute of Forensic Medicine attended the scene. The body was transferred for a post-mortem examination to determine the cause of death.
Authorities have not confirmed the cause of death and are awaiting forensic results. Investigators said they are examining all available evidence from the scene. The neighbour, Tum, said he had previously joked about whether a violent incident could have occurred inside the room, but did not anticipate a fatal outcome.
Amarin reported that police said the investigation remains ongoing and further updates will be provided once post-mortem and forensic analysis results are available. No additional details have been released at this stage.
