Rescue workers alerted Kamala Police Station around 3:30 pm, prompting officers to inspect a three-storey house in the Kathu district. The deceased was found near the bedroom door on the third floor, with no visible wounds or indications of a struggle. Investigators noted traces of bodily fluids on his face and vomit in the toilet.

A friend, also from Turkey, last saw the man alive at approximately 3 am. The deceased had reportedly been coughing, vomiting, and experiencing back pain the night before. According to his friend, the man frequently used cannabis alongside medication to alleviate these symptoms.

The two spent the night in separate rooms, and upon waking at 3 pm, the friend found him unresponsive and called for assistance. Police confirmed the presence of cannabis and paraphernalia in the room, with no signs of forced entry or ransacking.

Forensic doctors from Vachira Phuket Hospital conducted a preliminary site examination. The body was transferred to Patong Hospital for further investigation to establish the cause of death. Kamala Police are working with the Turkish Embassy to notify the man's family and arrange religious rites.

I might be a secret agent from a foreign government, but not the usual ones that lurk, something different, maybe alien even.

I could be the lawyer of the driver of the truck the brit lad fell off of checking to see if anyone on to him, all so strange.

Maybe someone who took a break from this crazy foreigner forum for a bit.

Naaaa has to be a banned troll!

Who knows it's all very ODD!

Good Muslim boys living like pigs, what's new. 🤬🤬

Do not buy or use powdery or rock substance drugs, it's just death waiting to happen with all the fentanyl being produced.

Weed isn't going to kill you unless you choke on a box of donuts.

Looking at the table and what was left,his flat mate also lived there.The pic says a thousand words
