Man, 65, jumps to his death from Bangkok condo

By The Nation

 

 

A man, 65, jumped to his death from a condominium where he lived alone in Bangkok’s Nong Khaem district early on Friday.

 

Pol Captain Narong Thiankanthet, deputy inspector of the Nong Khaem Police Station, said the incident happened at 1am at the Nong Khaem Condotel on Phetkasem Soi 81/1.

 

The man was identified as Pinij Sukha, who lived on the sixth floor.

 

Police did not find any signs of foul play inside the room. A suicide note was found in room, asking anyone to contact his younger sister and hand over the room key to her.

 

The man’s neighbour, Wanchai Anmun, 30, who lives in the opposite room, told police Pinij had been in the room for years and he had never seen any relatives visiting the man.

 

Wanchai said Pinij was a friendly person but he later complained of his health.

 

“If anything happens to me, please help my sister get the room key,” Wanchai said Pinij had told him recently.

 

Wanchai said the man normally left his room door open and turned the lights on but when Wanchai returned from work on Thursday evening, he found the door was closed and the lights were off.

Strange, isn't it, that when you see a headline like that you automatically think it is a Farang.

 

 

 

Obviously, it is not only Farangs who struggle with life/health issues (in Thailand).

Also, sad that it doesn't sound like he had much contact with his family.

 

RIP

 Very sad way to go....... RIP....

Very sad. I wonder if his little Sister ever visited him or vice versa, seems not. RIP mate.

RIP ....BH he is my age 

Very sad, he was perhaps very lonely. I pray he finds peace wherever he is.

So sad and lonely 

Rip 

So he usually left the door open.  Isn't anybody going to ask to check the CCTV, see if anybody came by, maybe a robbery go wrong?

You never know.... Amazing Thailand!

You don't now that he jumped.  That is a conclusion or assumption.  There is no eye witness, no CCTV yet.
