britmaveric Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 No signs of foul play Pattaya Mail: Boonlua Chatree http://www.pattayamail.com/current/news.shtml#hd12 Police and Sawang Boriboon personnel were called to the Nirun Condotel in Soi Arunothai following the housekeeping staff discovery of the body of a foreign resident, later identified as James Robert Citizen. Initial examination revealed no evidence of foul play and police estimate that the foreigner had been dead for at least 2-3 days. Police questioned the housekeeper who discovered the man, and she told them that she cleaned the outside hallway on a daily basis and noticed that he had not moved from the same position for two days. Assuming something was amiss, she called the police. Officers and Sawang Boriboon personnel surreptitiously removed the body of the 57-year-old UK national as not to alert residents. Police suspect the man died of a heart attack in his sleep. However, the body was taken to the forensic institute for a post mortem to determine cause of death.

MinutePigglet Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Initial examination revealed no evidence of foul play and police estimate that the foreigner had been dead for at least 2-3 days. Another one? Exactly! This thread should really be titled "Yet another farang kicks in Pattaya." It's much more exciting when they go into details, or better yet show the bodies on TV. Is that morbid of me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike100 Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 I had my English tenant die in the house we rented him last month. Turned out to be natural causes (well, alcohol related) and was not a pleasant experience to find him after three days. Got to say the police were very thorough spending most of the day there, and later questioning the wife and I down at the police station for 4 hours. We couldn’t tell tem too much as he had only rented the place a week or so before. It was at first thought to be murder until a doctor from the hospital where he had been treated, said all the blood (in three rooms) was from a fatal hemorrhage. Was starting to think that I was a suspect until then. His name was Charlie Liptrot, 53, from Liverpool, if anyone here knew him and did not know about this. He had lived in Thailand since 1990. RIP Charlie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something is really amiss !!!!!! with that statement me think ? R.I.P. Citizen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds from the description like it was a hallway cleaner who could see him sitting there through the grate security door everyone has there. You can kind of see into the units as you walk around. A lot of people leave the main door open for cross ventilation. That's the only way to get air flow. I have never seen a cleaner there, but I guess they do exist. Also, unsettling that he was only 57. Edited January 10 by JimTripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
