An investigation is underway for what caused a police officer to hang himself over the weekend inside a station in the capital’s Bang Khun Thian district.
The body of police Sgt. Maj. Suthin Boonchuay, 48, was discovered inside a locked office last night by colleagues seeking the source of a foul odor inside the Samae Dam Police Station.
Police believe he hanged himself there in the office of his supervisor, investigator Lt. Col. Phatsawee Kamnerddee, on Thursday or Friday.
Investigators found no sign of struggle and ruled it a suicide.
Police said Suthin had recently borrowed THB40,000 on behalf of a junior colleague, according to Bangkok Post.
Suthin was last seen working his regular shift Friday evening at the station, located southwest of downtown.
