[webfact]

 

On the late evening of 16 July 2024, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Anutin Charnvirakul addressed the media following a distressing incident where six foreign tourists were found dead in a luxury hotel in Bangkok's Ratchaprasong area.

 

During his visit to the scene, Mr. Anutin stressed the need for patience, urging the public and media not to jump to conclusions about the cause of death until the autopsy results are revealed.

 

### Official Investigation Ongoing

Mr. Anutin reported that although preliminary information from the Metropolitan Police Commissioner is available, an official conclusion remains pending. "We must wait for the police to make an official announcement after a thorough investigation," he insisted.

 

When asked if Prime Minister Settha Thavisin had issued any special directives, Mr. Anutin noted that the Prime Minister was concerned about the incident. However, he clarified that the procedures would follow standard procedures, as the incident's nature requires meticulous investigation.

 

### Cause of Death Still Unknown

While early speculation might suggest self-harm, Mr. Anutin cautioned against premature conclusions. "At this moment, it looks like self-harm, but before saying anything definitive, let the police examine the evidence and make an official statement."

 

### Impact on Thailand's Image

Concerns about the incident damaging Thailand's image as a tourist destination were addressed, with Mr. Anutin emphasising the importance of context. "The deceased were tourists, not harmed by Thais. We must separate this incident from general safety perceptions of our country," he stated. He reassured that Thailand continues to be a safe and popular destination for tourists, contributing significantly to the economy.

 

### Awaiting Autopsy Results

Stressing the importance of waiting for forensic evidence, Mr. Anutin mentioned, "Once the bodies are sent for autopsy, many truths will begin to emerge. The police will then make an official announcement." He reiterated that there is no immediate threat to public safety and no indication of terrorist activities.

 

### Final Thoughts

In his concluding remarks, Mr. Anutin urged everyone to remain calm. "The situation is under control, and there is no cause for public panic," he assured.

 

As the investigation continues, Mr. Anutin's emphasis on patience and procedure highlights the importance of basing conclusions on verified facts, ensuring a thorough and accurate understanding of this tragic event.

What is he trying to cover up?

 

Ties with terrorism Pattaya killing of suspicious Iranian with his wife seems now even more plausible.

I realise he doesn't understand that people read the news on internet, not a very good publicity to travel here.
