Maids in shock as they discover wrapped corpse at Bangkok hotel - but why is the policeman smiling?

 

Picture: Daily News

 

Police and Ruam Katanyu Rescue services rushed to a hotel in Phrapradaeng south of Bangkok after the maids found what they thought was a corpse wrapped in bloodstained bedding next to the bed.

 

The authorities entered the "crimescene" cautiously as the maids quivered in fear outside. 

 

But what Pol Capt Pornchai Phuangsai found had him smiling rather than gathering fingerprints and getting ready to inform the press of the latest slaying. 

 

Inside the suspicious bundle were bloodstained towels and pillows.

It soon became obvious that this was not murder.

 

The cops were told that a man and a woman had checked in at 1 am and left in a hurry at 2 am. 

 

They believe that the couple had stayed in the room and not wishing to be condemned by staff for leaving the room in such a mess they had cleared up and wrapped it all in a bundle resembling a corpse.

 

Thaivisa notes that the hotel seemed to resemble what is known as a "curtain motel" or "shorty". 

 

Investigations did not continue.

Arent they always?

OP asks, why is the policeman smiling?.... Answer because he is a sicko.

Same as a few members on here they get some kind of kick about dead people.

[Andrew Dwyer]

This was on the tv news last night, the photo was on screen for a long long time, eventually I asked my gf the obvious question “ why is that cop smiling “.

 

Turns out he had realised that it was only pillows and bedding and was smiling at the situation which had accidentally/ purposely been caused by the departing guests.

 

A joke to shock the maids I suspect, and it worked.

 

Media are just trying to squeeze a few laughs from an old joke !!

Read the OP. "No dead people were used in the making of this story".

I did read the OP, and still say the same, what he did was bloody stupid, and he could have killed someone through shock.

Before you dismiss that, a similar stunt was pulled a few years ago in the UK and a man died of shock.

Calm down. 555. They did it to hide their embarrasment. No intention of a practical joke. Thais - they know not what they do.

He is smiling because there is no corps. I guess you did not read the story. It is fun if maids are out in fear thinking there is a corpse when there is none. No crime has committed its a funny story.

Happy Halloween..

[kotsak]

It must have been a hell of a painal.

[zhounan]

There are hundreds of photos involving policemen smiling in from of a murder scene and a corpse. But this was just an Halloween joke to scare the maids,

100 baht under the pillow usually takes care of things.

He's just got a sense of humour and a reasonable imagination. 

He has just met some hysterically frightened hotel staff who think there is a dead body in the room but he can see it is only sheets and towels.  Pure Fawlty Towers with the Kipper and the Corpse!

So you can't die when menstruating?

 

I wish I could convince my wife of that. She's taken herself off to hospital more than once with menstruation pains.

Sound advice. I believe Colin and Neil have problems with their blood pressure.

Or perhaps by the time of the photo he'd already spotted what the "corpse" actually was!

I have to admit I’ve been in a similar situation, although not in a short time hotel, several times with different Thai women.

 

I used to lived just on the outskirts of town. It was a holiday resort where everyone was watching everyone else. So when I was in town, I would rent a room at a small hotel at 800 baht a night. Both receptionists got to know me and eventually I would get a room for 700 baht.

 

I would then find an agreeable woman to take back to the room. The receptionist would, by then, be in the room, where the safe was, with her back to the door watching television. So it was quite easy to sneak my lady friend in and then out again the next morning without anyone seeing. I never asked if it was ok. I am sure they all knew but so long as there was no trouble nobody cared.
 

I wouldn’t claim to be a hot young stud or to know which buttons to push to get her going. And I have the kind of face that only a mother could love, and sadly, she died 20 years ago. But there were occasions when, nothing to do with me, the woman was only too keen to come back with me because she was “up for it”.

 

There was one night, when, after I had rolled off her into a sweaty heap, she switched on the bedside lamp. We were both shocked by what we saw: dark reddish brown stains on the white bedsheets. They were deep and dark and weren’t going to rub out with hot water and bathroom soap, because we tried this first.

 

Being a clean Thai lady she was very very embarrassed and I did all I could to reassure her that everything was ok and I wasn’t angry with her. I was panicking inside because I didn’t fancy explaining this to reception. I was always careful to make sure the next morning that the room was reasonably clean and tidy. I used the hotel two or three times a month over about two years. I didn’t want a reputation as a customer who caused trouble. I am also a very shy and private person, especially about sexual matters.

 

On that occasion about 5 am I crept downstairs to where I knew the laundry basket was. As luck would have it there were some used sheets in there already, so I pulled one out and stuffed the soiled sheet in the basket. I ran back to the room with the “new” sheet and got her to put it on the bed. 
 

We then checked out about 9 am as if nothing had happened.

 

Now I admit that I felt pretty bad about this and felt I’d been cowardly. There was nothing to be proud of but I did my best in the circumstances.

 

After that I would put a folded towel from the bathroom on the bed and got her to lie on it. Unfortunately, it was always a white towel. On one occasion, the same thing happened, stains on the towel.
 

This time I got up early and went to a nearby laundry which I knew opened at 7:30 am and asked for an express cleaning service. The woman looked at the towel and asked about the stains. I just said that it had been the wrong time of the month for my lady friend. I thought that it was easier saying that than trying to explain that she had been highly sexually aroused and that in her excitement she had discharged some sort of feminine body fluid.

 

Anyway, it came out in the wash and I was able to get back into the hotel without being seen carrying a towel and we were able to check out at midday without any problems.

 

After that, I would bring my own beach towels which were a dark blue colour.

 

On another occasion, at another hotel, I was chatting to the receptionist/manager over a coffee. She said that the maids had reported that in one of the rooms a farang and his Thai gf had gone out for breakfast. The maids weren’t happy that the couple had not warned them that the bedsheets were heavily stained.
 

The receptionist was waiting for the couple to return. When they did turn up, she took the farang to one side and whispered in his ear and then put the dirty sheets in to his hands. He went bright pink but sheepishly took the sheets across the road to the laundry and paid for them to be cleaned.

 

So I do feel sorry for the young couple who found themselves in a similar embarrassing position. Their problem was more difficult because it was a ‘short time’ hotel and so they didn’t have time to get the sheets cleaned at an outside laundry before checking out.

 

I’m not sure what I would have done in that sort of situation; I have never been in a short time hotel. Being older and wiser I would like to think that I would have ‘manned up’, explained, and then offered to pay extra for the cleaning. I can’t believe I would just have checked out without saying or doing anything at all. 

 

I certainly wouldn’t have thought of the ‘dead’ body in the sheets routine. That was pretty imaginative and so I can understand why the policeman found it funny especially with the maids cowering outside in the corridor.

All’s well that ends well as they say. There’s nothing to see, move along, move along.
