webfact Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Hungarian pensioner dies in the cells at Suvarnabhumi as he awaits deportation Thai caption: He never woke up again Picture: Sanook A 60 year old Hungarian man who was set to be deported to face charges in his home country after he hid out and overstayed in Thailand was found dead in his holding cell at Suvarnabhumi airport on Sunday morning. The Hungarian man had earlier been arrested by the immigration police and handed over to the airport police on Saturday about midday. He was not considered at risk and had an evening meal and went to sleep. A check on him revealed he had died in the night and had been deceased around eight hours. There were no marks on his body or signs of foul play. Sanook said he was known to suffer from diabetes. An autopsy was called for and the Hungarian embassy were contacted so that relatives could be notified. An inquiry is underway and staff at the facility will be interviewed.

Might be, but it can also be that they found out he was diabetic after he was dead. It is Sanook stating that it was known he suffered from diabetes, which might be something they digged up after. In that case, if the man had his belongings taken away from him and never opened his mouth about any diabetes or a need for medication. In that case you can´t blame immigration either. 3 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nausea Posted January 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2020 Doesn't sound like his future was very rosy, especially at 60. Hopefully, he died in his sleep, which, as the song says, is the most we can hope for. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you on about? Do you think he told them and they laughed at him and throw him to die in the cell? That wouldn’t surprise me... not that they knowingly threw him in a cell and left him to die, but that they ignored his requests to keep his medication out of ignorance and lack of empathy. Of course, all of this is just speculation, none of us can know what happened or how the deceased passed away. We have been 'fed a bone’ with the article mentioning Diabetes. Many of us have also been here long enough to hear how brutal the conditions and how uncompassionate the Police at the IDC are. That the deceased passed due to having his medication withheld remains a firm possibility.

Maybe, if he had diabetes type 1, and wasn't given insulin , it could cause ketoacidosis. But if he had type 2 and didn't take his tablets, i doubt it, although the stress of being jailed could be added in increasing the blood sugar level 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diabetes+stress, could be heart infarction or a massive stroke. More likely than a direct cause due to lack of diabetic medication.

Popular Post nobodysfriend Posted January 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2020 Sorry Thailand , but I think that you are treating people who did not commit a real crime , just overstayed their Visa , like hard core criminals by throwing them into overcrowded prison cells , not fair . I mean a crime is something that let's somebody else suffer a loss . Of life or material things etc . But overstay ? Who suffers from this ? Apart of the overstayers who are in prison themselves , of course ...? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to quote myself (#3) here. The reason for is that I can not for my life understand why so many get confused over above post. Is it some kind of rule to blame immigration for everything, disregarding if there is proof to back it up or not? Or is it only that you confused members are so lost that you just go with the flow and blame anyone you just don´t wish to show any support for totally without evidence? Yes, I know that it might be true. They might have denied him his medication, but until there is nothing that supports that it´s better to not judge. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, just like you making up things to justify your narrative. I think many expats have a very good understanding about Thai immigration and how it works, many expats have visited Thai prisons to aid expats, there are many expats who know people who have fallen foul of immigration and every expat knows immigration due to their archaic 90 day reporting and annual applications for extention. Is it more or less likely they never gave him his medication? HELL YES. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever had any dealings with authorities in Thailand ? Besides an occasional road stop ? yes they laugh and lock you up and could not care less what you say or what you need that is in addition to speaking almost zero English . i was witness to Korean couple being thrown in the cells where wife freaked and went into shock, could not breath , turned blue . It was us the inmates to revived her while guard on duty did not even offfer a bottle of water Edited January 27, 2020 by BestB 8 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Golden Triangle Posted January 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2020 3 hours ago, Matzzon said: How, please explain? For a start it's called 'Duty of Care' something that is sadly lacking in Thailand even though they are supposed to be signed up to various Human Rights conventions. That's why you have 40 to 60 prisoners to a cell in the prisons and all sorts of other abuses, wake up dude and stop being another apologist for this sadly lacking country. And yes, I have been to visit someone in jail here so I know the conditions. 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
