Mickmouse1 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Police should behave and conduct themselves in a professional manner by refraining from making such a suggestion before the investigation reveals the cause of death.Why should they drew such a conclusion and what if it was not a suicide? Will they then potch it up to make it look like A suicide to save face???? <deleted>!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdkane Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Given these circumstances, and the police's assumptions, I can only assume that a police officer known to the investigators killed the man... Whenever I die here, if I do, please know that it will NOT be a suicide...Thaivisa members--avenge my death!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombat Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Very bizarre indeed , then again you tend not to struggle with a glock held at your head , just a suggestion...................................... .. Whether it was a Glock or a bazooka, a suffocating person will struggle. If you don't believe me, try it yourself. er.....maybe he wasn't awake when he did this......obviously suicide by <Thai language removed> .....nothing to see here.....move along Edited June 18, 2016 by metisdead Thai language removed from post.

nausea Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I can think of easier ways of committing suicide. It might conceivably have been a sex thing gone wrong. Some guys get off on aphyxiation. If the guy had a history of this the suicide verdict would be a nod to the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Thai police tend not to undertake evidence-based investigations but are world famous for their preferred alternative, the predetermined-outcome investigation. It is rather similar to the former but works in reverse. So, the discovery of evidence to support their determination is the last piece of the puzzle rather than the first while the announcement of what happened comes first rather than at the end. They find it makes life easier that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAZZPA Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I guess if they made a Thai version of CSI for Thai TV it would be a comedy because no one in their right mind can take this seriously I can see it now,,, Hords of policeman taking pics with their smartphones then calling around to get the best price, this would be step 1 of the investigation. Step 2, look for local food vendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winniedapu Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Talk to any cop or EMT in any city in the world and you will find that no matter where, people kill themselves every day, often in bazaar and convoluted ways...not unique to Thailand According to WHO, Thailand was tied with Cuba for 56th place in 2012 world suicide stats...below the USA (50), Japan (17) and surprisingly, S.Korea at #2. Guyana was #1 Of course. mere facts wont deter the TV Constant Conspiracy Squad from their "Only in Thailand" mentality. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_suicide_rate#List_by_the_World_Health_Organization_.282012.29 OK, bear with me and please be gentle with me, but I don't understand. I accept that there are suicides in every country (though I'm not sure I've heard of any among the inuit). I accept that Guyana was number 1 for suicides in 2012. and that Thailand had fewer than the USA (which I understand - if I lived in the USA, I think I'd want to commit suicide). What I don't understand is why that means that the suicide in question may not have been a suicide.. Please help, words of one syllable would be helpful Please remember I'm not Thai but I have lived in Thailand for a while, so the old IQ might be on the wane. Winnie.

dotpoom Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 ?? I can imagine the police now; Senior copper: "Looks like suicide to me" Junior copper: "Should we not run a blood test first before we inform the family?" Senior copper: "We could. Or, we could go for dinner" Junior copped: "Dinner it is, then" Nice to see you found something to chuckle about in this story....May he RIP.

He would have been unable to breath and then placing his hands in the restraints and tightening them he would have been unable to save himself from suffocation." Beautiful detective work; look on in envy Mr. Holmes. The local police have it solved. Suicide, most definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atsiii Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 The way this is described as a suicide is beyond me. Please Mr. Policeman can you show us how this is possible. Even Poirot couldn't come up with that. Very sad and condolences for the family. By Thai standards it not the most bizarre suicide; at least with his hands tied and his mouth and nose taped, he did not then throw himself off a bridge. RIP, poor man.

gemguy Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) Suicide: Just the police way of doing as little police work as possible. And all based on: No Signs of a Struggle.

Artisi Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Maybe a quick look at the companies books may have some answers. Do you think there might be a connection, of course this depends on there being any company books to look at ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
