At 6.30pm on June 4 the death of foreign man in a guest house on Soi Buakhao was reported to police.
The man had not come out of his room for a day or so and the management asked a staff member to check the room, when they did they found the 57 year old Malaysian dead on the bed and on the floor was some burnt charcoal.
Police believe the man may have been stressed about his financial situation and perhaps was unable to pay for his room and had decided to commit suicide.
They surmised that the man had lit the charcoal and he had died from the carbon monoxide fumes.
The floor of the apartment has traces of charcoal
