PHUKET: A 29-year-old Thai man was found hanged in a cell at Cherng Talay Police Station in the early hours of yesterday. The man had earlier been arrested for trespassing.

 

Maj Sakol Krainara of the Cherng Talay Police told The Phuket News today (Mar 14) that 29-year-old Rotnayom Phutdee was arrested for trespassing on Sunday night (Mar 12).

 

“Rotnayom said that before leaving for work on Sunday he took half a pill of methamphetamine (ya bah). He then took a local bus to Surin where he worked as a vendor.

 

“After he finished work he met with some friends and they sat and drank together. He then climbed a tree and climbed along the wall of a foreign man’s property. This caused a dog in the property to start barking and the owner came out so he ran away to hide.

All security cameras where out of order again?

I was advised years ago by a Thai lawyer that there is no trespassing law in Thailand so something is strange here

Having seen how Yaba can <deleted> up a person's brain I think it is highly likely that he did commit suicide. Yaba is one of the worst drugs out there!

Hang from where? With what? Is everything supplied?
