“The Kyrgyzstani woman was a friend of my ex-girlfriend. She used to ask for help as she was allegedly being defrauded by a Chinese gangster to become a prostitute. She claimed she needed a place to hide. I don’t personally know her but I gave one of my rooms for her to stay in.”

The woman had thrown bank notes adding up to over 10,000 baht over the balcony before she fell. Police found that she had also recently seen a doctor, although the reason was unclear.
