Man Drowns in East Pattaya Lake

Nongprue Police and a Unit of The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Foundation swung into action after reports that a body had been seen floating in a small lake nearby. At the scene in in Soi Tungklom Tanmun 27 in East Pattaya they found the body of Khun Mai who was discovered floating face-down in the lake and he is thought to have been dead for around 10 hours.

Khun Mai aged 51 had no marks on his body suggesting foul play and at this stage it is thought that due to some unknown medical condition Khun Mai had fallen into the water and drowned.

Khun Sai the 52 year old wife of the deceased looked on distraught as the body of her husband was brought to shore. Khun Sai explained that she had had a bad premonition of death the previous evening and begged her husband not to go fishing. He laughed it off. That was the last time she saw him alive.

The body of Khun Mai was transported to hospital for a full post mortem to be carried out before his body can be released to the family for funeral rites to be carried out.
