At least they are keeping an open mind to what happen instead of saying something else with no proof. For example, sex game gone wrong, he tripped into the bag, was playing blind mans bluff snf fell into the water.

Full points for your wild imagination! 😃

The body of a 49-year-old Indian male tourist has been discovered wedged among rocks near Ao Som on the southern side of Koh Samet, with initial investigations revealing his head was bound with a black plastic bag secured by a luggage strap.

Definitely suicide. No need for a police investigation.

Foreigner deaths seem to be a regular thing, certainly this year.

Remember that you can hang with your hands tied behind you back in LOS and be called a suicide.

 

I have encountered a suicide in New Zealand with this scenario; resulted in strangulation, tied to a door handle rather than hanging; no doubt it was suicide and can only presume he'd tied his hands to ensure death. Grim stuff. The standard NZ police report 'no suspicious circumstances, referred to the coroner'.

Absolutely ridiculous treatment by the Police saying the death is "suspicious". It is an outright murder or homicide.

Might be ; 1 the lawyers b/<deleted> being involved in a legal response or 2. a news report  language translation problem.  I lean towards guess "1"

Every time you meet someone or do anything for that matter out of your normal routine........you gotta think, go with your gut, and breathe.   A million times I probably should have been beaten for being a punk, and a million times I was quiet when I had to be.....but it only takes one bad decision that leads to more and more and more.    include drinking, partying (on an island, I can speculate), etc... and things go crazy.

 

wrong place, wrong time....   all I can say now until I get more information.  I am curious about how it all started.  Hey buddy, want to share a cab?  Hey buddy, can I ask you a question?  Hey buddy, what are you drinking?  

 

 

 

 

Hey buddy WTF are you talking about???? 🤷🏼
