Karon – A Chinese woman died after she fell from a hotel in Karon, Phuket.

The Karon Police were notified of the incident at 4:00 A.M. on Friday (October 6th) at a hotel in Karon. They arrived at the scene to find the body of Mrs. Zou Ke, 34, a Chinese national, lying on the ground.

 

Hotel staffers told police that Mrs. Zou checked into the hotel alone on the 10th floor. However, the Karon Police are continuing and checking CCTV footage to see if she was last seen with anyone before her death.

 

The Karon Police have yet to conclude if she fell by accident, jumped down, or if there was any possible foul play.

Uh Oh...This seems suggestive that when they arrived the door was not locked then ?

 

That aside Thailand was already scrambling to ease the other event of a Chinese national being killed in that mall shooting.

Chinese tourist dies after falling from Karon hotel balcony

By Peter Roche
 

 

A 34 year old Chinese woman named ‘Zou’ fell to her death from the 10th floor of a 5 star hotel in Karon Beach, a popular resort area in southern Thailand. She had visited Phuket 18 times before.

 

The woman had arrived in Thailand on Monday, holding a tourist visa. She was identified as a tourist from China. According to Hassen Hamrouni, a 35 year old Tunisian national, he and the woman were in a romantic relationship. They had checked into the Pullman Hotel in Karon at 3pm on Thursday and were occupying a room on the 10th floor.

 

On Thursday evening, after dining and drinking at a hotel restaurant, they returned to their room at 10pm. Mr. Hamrouni stated that while they were in the room, his girlfriend repeatedly expressed a desire to end her life. However, he did not take her statements seriously.

An article in the BP stated that the boyfriend actually caught her by the leg as she jumped, but he could not pull her back in.

A witness on the ground verified this.

I think I see the problem.  This is not what a normal tourist does...

 

It should only take one or two visits to realize there's lots of places in Thailand better than Phuket to spend your holiday. ????

 

Something is henky here, folks. ????‍♂️

Quite common in Pattaya. 

 

Lots of foreigners, spend all their money, when there's nothing left, it's over the edge they go. 

 

Above Mike shopping mall before the renovations, there was a rooftop swimming pool, many times, foreigners would make their way to the rooftop and jump. 

 

Made sense for management to shut down the swimming pool.

Reminds me of a tour I went on years ago through the workings of Hoover Dam. I asked the tour guide if suicides occurred often at the dam and she replied that the most recent was just the day before.

 

That's what occurs when you put it all on Red and Black shows up.

Nothing wrong with Phuket, but something is very wrong with the type of tourists that Thailand wish to have more. ????????

Another one bites the dust.
