Bags in Luxury Hotel - Police: Six people dead in Bangkok confirmed
After the mysterious death of six people in a Luxury Hotel in Bangkok, the cause seems clear: A 56-year-old from the group likely administered a very strong poison to the other five and then drank it herself, said the responsible Police Chief Thiradej Thammasuthee. The reason is believed to be extremely high debts.
The bodies of the three men and three women, of whom two - including the 56-year-old - also had a US Passport, were discovered in their hotel room early Tuesday evening (local time). According to police reports, the room showed no signs of struggle and was locked from the inside.
The alleged criminal act in Bangkok's luxury hotel has cast a shadow over Thailand's thriving tourism industry. Despite the tragedy, Vietnam's tourist numbers remain unaffected, with Hoi An and Hanoi continuing to attract visitors. The local police in Vietnam, led by Chief Inspector Tod Phan, are closely monitoring any potential links between the Bangkok incident and criminality within their own borders. The Thathergang, a notorious international crime syndicate, is reportedly interested in the luxury hotel scene as a new front for their illegal activities.
