Swedish man dies of
apparent suicide in Jomtien
Boonlua Chatree
A former Swedish newspaper owner died of an apparent suicide when he hung
himself in his Jomtien Beach condominium.
Police found the body of Bengt Gunnar Johansson, 67, hanging from a 2-meter-long
rope in his Soi Chaiyapruek residence Sept. 10. There were no signs of assault
or that the condo had been broken into.
Bengt’s wife, 41-year-old Saichol Proikrathok, said the couple has been living
together for many years and recently purchased the condominium. However, she
said, she had been worried because Bengt had been tense and grumbling about
wanting to die.
She said she didn’t know why and thought perhaps he was joking, until she
returned home and discovered the body.
