Englishman found dead in apartment

PATTAYA: -- Police were summoned to an apartment block in South Pattaya following the report of a death of a foreign national at around 7.30 p.m. on July 11. The dead man, Paul Anthony Savill, 36, from the United Kingdom apparently committed suicide following a string of mishaps and business troubles in the UK.

Offices arrived on the scene to find Savill lying on the floor of the apartment with a curtain chord wrapped around his neck. The curtains from the large window nearby had been pulled from the wall.

Maneeya Savill, 32, the dead man’s wife who reported the tragic find, told police that her husband was due to fly back to the UK to attend to an urgent business matter. However, the chain of events leading up to her husband’s death may have also been a contributing factor.

She revealed that Paul had been drinking the previous night and on his way home crashed into a baht bus and was forced to pay 12,000 baht in compensation to the driver. Enraged, he arrived home to continue his libation, at which time he consumed around 65 Valium tablets, after which he began throwing things around the room and put his fist through a window, causing him to require stitches.

According to Maneeya, they returned from the hospital in the early hours of the morning, after which she left to carry out some personal business. When she returned to the apartment she found her husband dead on the floor. She called for help to resuscitate him, but these proved unsuccessful.

Police transferred the man’s remains to the forensic institute for a post mortem examination and informed embassy officials to notify his next of kin.

Booze and valium and he was still able to throw things around.

What else was he taking?

Valium is a sedative and alcohol enhances the sedation!!
