Grisly find by hotel maid - 27 year-old woman from Kalasin found dead in young Irish tourist's hotel room.

Have never understood why anyone would do this...especially a likely Buddhist...who should have feelings of non-attachment to material things.

Always a shame.

Condolences to family and friends.

Suicide always seems like such a waste of a life. My deepest sympathies to the famiy and friends of the victim.

2 speculative posts deleted. Lets stay with the facts.

She must have been in such despair. So very sad.

Looking a the picture on the top left of the victim, she clearly has one leg on the ground. Out of interest is it possible to hang oneself while still in contact with the floor? Any medical professional here who could say if it was possible?
