PHUKET: Police are waiting for doctors to confirm the cause of death of a 27-year-old French tourist who was found collapsed in his hotel room in Patong this morning (Oct 8).

 

Staff at The Nest Resort on Nanai Rd notified police at 9:30am after the man’s body was discovered.

 

“At this stage we suspect them man died from food poisoning or a severe allergic reaction,” said Lt Sirinath Cheuchutakulthong of the Patong Police.

 

The man, who checked in to the hotel on Thursday, was found naked, collapsed against a set of drawers in the room’s hallway, she explained.

 

“Although his room was in disarray, there seemed to be no signs of a struggle,” Lt Sirinath said.

 

The man*, from Montreuil, France, seemed to have suffered a severe gastronomic reaction. The room’s bin was found full of fluid, and there were streaks of blood on the floor.

It's a long bow to draw.....BADLY CONTAMINATED FOOD IS SOLD IN THAILAND.

 

I'm sure there are times when It's sold In every country, through carelessness, not with criminal Intent.

There are many stages In the preparation of food from source to your plate, many stages where contamination can, and does, occur, and not just In Thailand.

 

A couple of women, staying at a swanky resort In Australia a few years back, died from shellfish poisoning, apparently debilitating pain, violent gastric upset, to the point of collapsing so fast that they had no opportunity to call for help.  It happens.

 

I recall something similar In Bali also.

It will be marked down as suicide an put on the pile with the rest of them.

My guess is illegal pesticides for bed bugs just as has happened so many times in the past. This will likely be covered up as well.

 

Many a suicide victim are found Naked.

The room was in disarray, 2 bottle of the stay awake drink among many other drink bottles.

I think I smell a date rape overdose.

Was my first thought......Also being a chef for 30 years, highly doubt food poisoning.

 

Mother & Daughter a few years ago eating seafood died that night.....suspect the poison fish FUGU or PUFFERFISH.....if you don't fillet it properly.

Look at how full that bin is with fluid, must have some bearing on this.

 

What kind of liquid does it appear to be ? 

 

I have filled a garbage can with liquid to soak my feet but I put towels on the ground nearby. 

 

I had the trots so bad before that I could not stand and so I crapped ina 5-gallon bucket. But it does not look like excrement.

 

Why would the young man fill that garbage container with water? What benefit would there be ? Maybe he was just soaking some laundry.

 

what would suggest a "gastro" event? Must be crap all over.

...allergic reaction.....

 

...food poisoning......

 

...no one to blame....

 

...wow....

 

....will we ever hear if he was in fact poisoned by another 'human'....

 

...doubt it....it would not be good for tourism....

 

...and would entail an actual investigation...

 

...sure that people around know what happened...exactly........

This is awful. Way too young. Hope they find the actual cause. Be interesting to know.

 

I guarantee the cause will not be anything detrimental to the tourism industry on Phuket.

  He may have been using that bin as an ice bucket ?

I have a upset stomach whenever I visit Thailand so much to the point that I now head straight to boots to buy the appropriate tablets on arrival. Usually after food is get stomach pains. I've always put it down to my body being used to the high standards in the UK when it comes to food. This has made me think!

Ofcourse,

 

Geez...do I feel like a dummy for not thinking of that.

 

I have spoiled myself with luxury rooms including frig for too many years that I forgot what that looks like.

The only  other thing than food poisoning, date rape, would be Bed Bug Spray. or self inflicted suicide

 

Self Imnflicted suicide??  That's what suicide Is, death by one's own hand.  Somebody else kills you It's murder, manslaughter.
