soalbundy Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 ...if she is supposedly the wife....why hide her identity...... ...please do a blood test at least...... I have heard that if a foreigner doesn't die in hospital an autopsy is mandatory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard that if a foreigner doesn't die in hospital an autopsy is mandatory. I think that is not correct, and sincerely hope so as well. I really would not want an autopsy done, nor would I want my passport plastered in the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumply Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 What would a blood test prove in this context? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalansanitwong Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) He died in a hotel called the Safehouse? Wasnt safe for him. Thai wife says foreign husband died of heart disease , police believe her because theyre also medical experts. Case closed. Next.

hansnl Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 An autopsy is supposed to be mandatory if one does not die in a state hospital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) I am Swiss, 58 y old He is 3 months younger than me from the same canton as me. Reminds me how quick it can happen. But I am more afraid to die on the road than on the bed/floor. The usual unhiding of his ID despite the fact that he might have next of kin not being informed yet.

Doc46 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 What would a blood test prove in this context? Chemicals/Poison,Legal or not(Meds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 What would a blood test prove in this context? Probably as part of the autopsy looking for poison? But really, not every farang with a Thai wife/friend will be killed. A bit too much paranoia / prejudice in this forum.
