Tragic end for man found near Phuket beach in suspected suicide
The deceased struggled with pressures but showed no signs of self harm
A 40 year old man was found dead near Yanui Beach in Phuket yesterday afternoon, as police suspect suicide linked to depression and financial struggles.
At around 1pm yesterday, June 11, relatives of Wirach Tanpuean reported him missing to Chalong Police. He was last seen in the Yanui area, and officers from Chalong Police, along with the Rawai Municipality Rescue Unit and lifeguards, immediately launched a search.
By the afternoon, the search ended in tragedy when Wirach’s body was found at the northern end of Yanui Beach, near the windmill viewpoint. His body was neatly dressed, with no signs of physical assault.
It appeared that Wirach had tied a rope to a tree branch on a rock, leading police to suspect the incident was a suicide.
Through questioning his relatives and girlfriend, officers learned that Wirach had been battling depression and facing financial difficulties, which may have contributed to his tragic decision.
His family described him as a man struggling with overwhelming pressures, though he had not previously shown signs of intending to harm himself, reported The Phuket News.
Police are continuing their investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death, but initial findings suggest that the emotional and financial strain led to his tragic outcome.
