webfact Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 By Nop Meechukhun Banglamung – A foreign tourist with an unknown identity was found dead and unclothed in a rental room in the Banglamung district of Chonburi Saturday evening, April 23rd. Superintendent Kullachart Kullachai and officers from the Pattaya Police station arrived at a residence on Soi Chaiyapoon in Central Pattaya around 5:00 P.M. on Saturday after being alerted of a foreigner’s death in a room inside the residence. The deceased, whose name and identity remain unknown as of press time, was found naked across from the door to his bedroom. According to the initial inspection, the man was approximately around 40-60 years old. The room was sparsely furnished with very few belongings or items.

Pieces of bottles, snacks, and garbage was scattered on a wooden table. Spots of blood were also found in the bathroom. A wound was also discovered at the back of the deceased man’s neck. A maid and receptionist at the residence, Saifon Khamdee, 41, told Pattaya police that the foreigner was staying for 3-4 days but she did not know his identity as the residence owner who kept all the documents could not be reached at the moment.

Popular Post brianthainess Posted April 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2022 Why is there a broken door catch on the table, was his wallet there in the room, why was his Passport/paperwork with the owner, laid dead behind the door with a neck wound.

JeffersLos Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 It will be a close shave, but the key to the case will be if they have the bottle to bag the evidence, or if they just mask over it. Let's hope their incompetence doesn't take the biscuit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone that's only staying there 3-4 days, why would that be there? I don't usually do any DIY repairs when I rent a room for a night or two. Actually, I did once repair the Air-con in a room I had rented for 4 nights in Saigon. (pull out and wash filter in the sink, fix the on/off switch) But that was only because it was bloody hot, and it didn't look like they were going to do anything that night.

All sounds very suspect to me. He was opening the door. The handle fell off in his hand and struck him in the back of the neck. He placed the door knob on the table before he blacked out from a lack of oxygen to his brain caused by low blood levels. Next. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw a man in Pattaya last week, about 70, ragged trousers , odd flip flops, torn vest, beard, that would fit the profile of someone that would live in a place like this with no belongings. Poor, destitute, no hope now money all gone, so there is probably a market for hit holes like this. As for death, could very well be drunk and slipped over on bathroom water, hit head and staggered out looking for help. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone that's only staying there 3-4 days, why would that be there? "She then called her brother to help open the door" Guess they only had one key and had to break in. Usually the maid has a copy as well and wouldn't need her brother to help. 1 hour ago, BritManToo said: Where does it say 'white foreigner'. Could have been a Cambodian labourer. Cambodian labourers have free accommodation on-site usually, even at 300 baht per night for that <deleted> room, that's their full daily wage almost and them being 40-60 also makes it more unlikely.

He was naked so could have fallen in the bathroom perhaps onto the edge of a bath. That accounts for the blood in the bathroom.

For someone that's only staying there 3-4 days, why would that be there? I don't usually do any DIY repairs when I rent a room for a night or two. I carry a screwdriver and small penknife in my shower bag, always ready to tinker and invariably something is broken. It kills time until beer o'clock. If I still had my Leatherman I would carry that, and really get going... but a Filipino scrounged it off me when I retired! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
