A Ghanaian teacher from Bangkok was eventually found drowned in Pattaya Bay. Mr. SD Farsit aged 33 had come to Pattaya with his wife for a couple of days holiday and they had parked themselves on the beach opposite Soi 6 for a bit of rest and relaxation.
His wife a Thai lady Kun Kannika aged 25 was sitting in a deck chair on the beach as Mr. Farsit went for a dip in the sea. She and others saw Mr. Farsit fall from the bouys that seperate the swimming area and he disappeared under the waves. Some people nearby dived in the area but could not find him.
She quickly reported his disappearance to the authorities. Divers from The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Foundation were called out to join in the search for Mr. Farsit. A large crowd of onlookers gathered on the beach. Then about 6 hours later someone on the beach spotted the body of Mr. Farsit who had washed up on the beach a little further down the beach.
Mr. Farsit was declared dead on the scene by medics. He appeared to have suffered bleeding from the mouth and nose. Khun Kannika was distraught and was helped by the rescue workers as the body of her husband was transported to Banglamung Hospital for a full post mortem to be carried out. The Ghanaian Consulate in Bangkok has been notified about the death of one it's citizens.
