Jetsit’s wife said her husband had worked for a bank as a financial adviser. She said that Jetsit had been complaining about stress at work over the past two weeks, and he had disappeared from their home in the early hours of the morning on Friday. But she didn’t think he would die in this way.

A local mechanic found Jetsit’s body yesterday when he needed to move Jetsit’s car to have more space to repair another car. The mechanic asked some passers-by to help him push the car when they all saw Jetsit’s body inside. The mechanic said that he had first seen Jetsit’s car the day before (Friday).

According to the Thai news outlet Matichon, police are now investigating whether Jetsit’s death was a murder or a suicide.
