A police officer’s body was discovered beside a flat in the jurisdiction of the Police Region 5 in Chiang Mai yesterday, sparking an investigation that has ruled out foul play but suggests a tragic personal issue as the cause. The investigation team is set to further interrogate relatives and friends tomorrow, following the incident reported yesterday.
A grim discovery was made at a police flat in the province of Chiang Mai, where the body of a deputy police officer, identified only as Adisorn from Mae Ping Police Station, was found lifeless with a rope around his neck.
The police, forensic doctors from Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital, and rescue workers gathered at the scene to examine the circumstances surrounding the death.
The initial examination revealed no signs of assault or struggle, leading investigators to consider stress from personal matters as a potential factor in the tragic event. Despite the absence of visible injuries, the precise cause of death remains to be firmly established.
The body has been transported to the forensic department to undergo a thorough autopsy that could shed more light on the circumstances leading to the officer’s demise.
The unexpected passing of Adisorn has prompted authorities to delve deeper into his background, seeking insights from those who knew him best. The police are preparing to conduct follow-up interviews of close friends and relatives tomorrow to piece together the events that may have precipitated this tragedy, reported Khaosod.
