German man found hanged in Pattaya rented house

PATTAYA, CHONBURI: -- A 60-year-old German man has been found dead in his rented room in Pattaya.

Police rushed to the house Sunday evening and found Thomas Parfe dead. He was hanged to an iron bar of the entrance door and his head was covered with a plastic bag.

Police were alerted by Manas Sodsong, 23, who claimed to be Parfe's adopted son.

Manas said he did not live with Parfe and he was alerted by Parfe's neighbours that Parfe's door was left open for two days and the German was not seen coming out of the house.

Police expected Parfe might have died two days earlier.

Manas said Parfe used to own a Pattaya hotel but he sold it after he became bankrupt.

Pol Lt Col Thailert Luebua, an inspector of the Pattaya Police station, said Parfe apparently committed suicide. His body was sent to the Forensic Institute for an autopsy.

UPDATE

German former Hotel owner found dead in his Jomtien home

On Sunday Night, Police Lieutenant Colonel Tailert from Dongtan Police Sub-Station, located on Jomtien Beach, was called to a house in Jomtien which was known to be rented by Mr. Ernst-Joachim Otto Pape aged 60 from Germany by the mans adopted son, Khun Manat aged 23 who discovered the body of Mr. Pape in the living room. He was hanging from a steel door frame. A plastic bag was placed over his head and tied tightly around his neck. Due to the suspicious circumstances, a forensic doctor was called to the scene and confirmed he had been dead for about 2 days. It was known that Mr. Pape was the part-owner of the Marina Inn Plaza Hotel located in Soi Yensabai, South Pattaya, however financial problems resulted in him declaring bankruptcy and the hotel was handed over to the other partner. Police have recorded the death as suspicious and the forensic doctor confirms that foul play may be involved, however he did state that the victim could have placed the bag over his head, seconds before hanging himself. The investigation continues.
