The pre-inquest review hearing into the death of Wild Boar football player Dom or Duangphet Phromthep who died in the United Kingdom on February 14th following a call to emergency services from his school on February 12th last will be heard on July 6th next. A provisional cause of death for the 17-year-old has been forwarded to the Leicestershire coroner but has not been made public. The ashes of the young footballer were flown back to Thailand on Saturday morning with rituals and ceremonies held over the weekend in Chiang Rai province.

The sudden death of the young teenager pursuing his dream of learning to play football in the United Kingdom came as a huge shock after February 14th last following an incident two days earlier at his exclusive boarding school where he was a student since late last year in Leicestershire. An inquest process began before the Coroner Court days later which should, in the months ahead, provide a fuller explanation of the circumstances surrounding the tragic loss of Duangphet Phromthep.

 

Even after the ashes of Wild Boar football player Dom were returned on Saturday to Thailand, inquiries are ongoing in the United Kingdom into his demise although a provisional cause of death has been furnished to the Leicester City and South Leicester Coroners court which, at the end of February, set a pre-inquest review hearing in the case for July 6th without revealing the provisional findings.

 

The ashes of beloved Wild Boar football team member Duangphet Phromthep or ‘Dom’ were returned to Thailand on a Thai Airways flight which landed at Suvarnabhumi Airport on Saturday at 6.30 am.

Something strange going on, as there is no cause of death released.....Normally they just tell it, but now everyone is speculating...

The "provisional cause of death" just what does that mean? why is it not made public? Just what are they trying to cover up. My heart bleeds for the parents who have every right to answers, what a very sad outcome after being entombed in a cave, getting out alive, pursuing his football dream in another country. To die alone and without family, It's just too horrific for words.

You must wait as all will be revealed on July 6th. This can be normal procedure in the UK.

For reference 22 February 2023:

 

Opening the inquest, Professor ................ senior coroner for Leicester City and South Leicestershire, said that a provisional cause of death had been identified .......................However, she did not disclose it during the short hearing.............................The cause of death is provisional until the formal hearing....................... Investigations and inquiries are continuing and I'm not in a position to proceed...........A review hearing will take place on 6 July, Professor ........ added.
