British man found suffocated in Phuket

Phuket Gazette

          

PHUKET: -- A British man from Liverpool was found dead with a plastic bag taped around his neck at a house in Rawai yesterday afternoon.

His partner, Rasamee Khaigarb, contacted Capt Somkiet Sarasit of Chalong Police to report the incident at about 4pm. The policeman arrived at the scene with rescue teams.

“We found the 55-year-old man lying face up with a black garbage bag over his head. He was naked, but covered by a blanket. A roll of electrical tape also lay nearby, which had been used to keep the bag in place as well as to avoid air from going in or out,” Capt Somkiet told the Phuket Gazette. “There were also five nearly empty packets of pills nearby, of which 45 had already been used.”

Police confirmed that there were no injuries or bruises on his body.

 

The victim’s partner told police that the two of them had had an argument on Saturday, after which she left the one-storey house.

Why why? Kill yourself and banished your self into eternity because of some chik.
All heartache eventually subsides, especially when a replacement is just 1k away

Find it difficult to sympathize with the farang.  If you want to come to Thailand and get involve with some Thai ladies what do you expect?

Please don't blame the BIB or the Thais , you come to Thailand, get drunk, fight with locals, offend them,  married their women, you shouldn't be doing any of these things at all. Just have a nice short holiday and leave peacefully. Pay 50 baht more if they ask for it, for heaven sake don't argue and get knife stick in your tummy.

Farangs don't fit into the Thai society- can't they see it?

No, nothing to do with captivating power, just that they make it easier for your slip your manhood into their little...........you know what. You mistook that for something else.

Yes, of course, I see posts saying the BIB said this was a suicide case and closed , so they blame the BIB for not doing their job. The BIB have their hands full dealing with all the foreigners fighting with their girl friends. That's why I said, just screw , pay and go home. What's so romantic about some country girls not being able to communicate with you in real time. Get what I am talking about? This post is connected directly to the problem just that you don't see it  because I am critical of foreigners in Thailand. ( I no longer want to use the word farang lest I be accused of racism. )

The Thais cannot put up with the superiority complex and ego of the foreigners, they just country folks for heaven's sake.

Lots of places in ASEAN where you can do the slipping, and a number of places at cheaper rates too...but...

 

Such a past time do not capture your soul to the extend of leaving behind your parents and relations through suicide...

You may be right there. So it's the charm of Thai dames.

Beware of those tattoos on their backs...some are supposedly magical charms (from Khmer priests) to rein in their catches...

Maybe you would prefer that nobody from overseas came to Thailand, just sent their money...

Hm, i don't think that's exactly what you had in mind, still a good story.
This chick cheated on her bf, a tattoo artist, he found out. She wanted some romantic motive from the Narnia-gig - that's what she's got, she wasn't pleased much apparently ;-)
