Police suspect a sexy model found dead yesterday in her luxury condominium in Bangkok's Huay Khwang district may have been murdered and are checking security cameras for a possible killer.

The body of FHM 2008 model Sasithorn "Pik" Onwimol, 28, was found with a gunshot wound to the right temple on her bed covered with a blanket to the chest.

A .38 pistol was found near her right elbow.

Her bedroom, which had the air-conditioner left on, showed no sign of being ransacked. She was thought to have died three or four days ago.

Condo maid Rattana Kwaenbanchao, 41, told police neighbours had complained about a foul smell from the woman's room so managers of the block had a key maker unlock the door. They found Sasithorn's body in her bed and alerted police.

Deputy city police chief Pol Maj General Sumet Reung-sawat said police found some suspicious points in her death that suggested the scene might have been staged to cover up a murder.

He said that if the model committed suicide there should not be gunpowder on the blanket - and there were reportedly two spots of gunpowder on the blanket. That suggested a person may have covered her face before killing her.

He said police would probe her death in detail first and check to see if security cameras reveal a suspect.
