Rimmer Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 An elderly Scotsman was found dead, his body in a relatively advanced state of decomposition, in his room at a Pattaya hotel on 8 December, 2009. Police were informed and an autopsy was conducted to determine the cause of death, which was later thought to have been from a heart attack. Pattaya, 9 December, 2009 [PDN]: At 1am on December 8, Pattaya Police Investigator, Pol. Lt. Col. Wirawut Milai, was notified that the dead body of a foreigner has been found in Room 714, on the 7th Floor of the Diana Estate Hotel, Soi Bua Khaow. A police team was sent to investigate. Arriving at the incident scene, police were faced with the dead body of Mr. Gordon Miller, aged 72, from Glasgow, Scotland. He was lying exposed, on his right side, on the floor next to the bed. Police examined the body but found no wounds or signs of a struggle, only a pile of clothes on the bed. Mr. Miller’s body was then taken for autopsy to discover the exact cause of death. After medical teams had examined the body, Pol. Lt. Col. Wirawut Milai announced that Mr. Miller had been dead for minimum of 3 days and had probably died from a heart attack. Police filed a report of the death before contacting the British Embassy, which would inform the family so they could make arrangements for a funeral. pattayadailynews.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll agree with dying alone being sad, but death at this age isnt ... no disrespect to his family if theyre reading is intended, just my point of view.
