A 29-year-old Indian national, Mr. Yash Dashrath Bhanushali, fell to his death from the 15th floor of a luxury hotel in the Thonglor area. His body was found dangling from the fifth-floor balcony roof, partially suspended with his legs entangled in the metal frame. Police believe the fall may have been caused by cannabis intoxication, as products were found in his hotel room.

 

The incident occurred at around 02.00 on October 14, when Thonglor Police Station was alerted to the fall. Investigating officers, along with forensic experts and rescue personnel, arrived at the scene to find Mr. Bhanushali’s upper body hanging from the balcony roof, while his legs were caught on the frame. Blood pooled on the ground beneath him, and his shirt had slipped off, resting in his hands. He was dressed in black pants, and there were no immediate signs of a struggle.

 

A search of his hotel room on the 15th floor revealed several packages of cannabis products scattered on the desk and floor. Police have collected the items as evidence. No signs of forced entry or a disturbance were noted, and the room appeared undisturbed.

 

 

According to hotel security guard Mr. Suriwat Khewnoi, he heard a loud thud around 01:30, prompting him to check the security cameras. Footage showed Mr. Bhanushali falling from the 15th floor and landing on the fifth-floor balcony. Further investigation revealed that the window in his hotel room, located at room 1519, was left open. Mr. Bhanushali had been staying alone since October 6 and was scheduled to check out on October 15.

 

Surveillance footage from October 13 showed that Mr. Bhanushali had left the hotel and returned at 20:04. There were no visitors or other entries to his room after that time, suggesting that he may have fallen from his own window.

 

The body has been sent to the Police General Hospital’s Forensic Institute for an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. Meanwhile, the Indian Embassy has been contacted to notify the victim’s family and arrange for the repatriation of his remains.
