libya 115 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 SOURCE: Pattaya One News: August 20th 2008 Decomposed Body Found Hanging from Tree. On Tuesday night police from Banglamung station were called to a remote location in Huay Yai sub-district where they made the grisly discovery of a decomposed body hanging by electrical cable from a tree. Judging from the decomposed state of the corpse, the male had been dead for at least two months and police are suspecting foul play. The deceased, aged about 25 but currently unidentified, had his hands bound in front of his body with duct tape, a situation which tends to make suicide rather difficult. The first task of officers is to identify the body and then make further inquiries.

Basil B Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 this is def suicide, Agreed, Why go to all the bother of kidnapping somebody, dragging them off to some secluded place and hanging them when we all know executions Thai style are "Drive By".

poshthai Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 If it was a farang though,surely a thai would throw him off a building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptuan Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Understatement of the year: "Hands bound with duct tape. Possible foul play." The fifth grade writing level of Pattaya City News shines through again. Sorry, changing the name to Pattaya One didn't seem to cure their problems.

If you take a phrase out of context, it's always difficult to judge whether it's foul play or not. Pattaya One is there to report what happened and not to give their own interpretation of the facts. That's why we have ThaiVisa.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) I would call CSI Las Vegas. Amazing what kind of forensic evidence they can get from duct tape. Usually they solve the case within 60 minutes. Edited August 22, 2008 by dotcom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slip Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Respected senior members- you seem to be being pretty flippant about the (probably grim) demise of this poor b*stard.

britmaveric Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Suicide - hands bound behind the back indicates this all the way, based on previous other suicides in Patters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toptuan Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Respected senior members- you seem to be being pretty flippant about the (probably grim) demise of this poor b*stard. You've got us wrong, there. We are flippant about the absurd way in which this tragedy has been reported. If we could shame Pattaya One into silence (or those who spill their drivel into this forum), I think we'd all be better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I am sorry, but I can't quite agree with everyone. I realize that the reporting is, well, less than professional, but I am glad it is reported. It is nice to have news about what is happening outside of our little world--even if it's reported in poor English. The police would do much better to say less and do more. Hope they identify this guy and my condolences to his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
