Russian Husband commits suicide in Jomtien Hotel after split with his Wife

Posted on December 27, 2012 at 9:21 pm

A 55 year old Russian appears to have committed suicide in a Jomtien Beach Hotel and was discovered dead on Thursday afternoon.

Police and rescue services were called to Room Number 415 on 4th Floor of the Dragon Beach Resort close to Soi 16 on Jomtien Beach Road. Inside the bathroom was the body of Mr. Alexandre Ivanov aged 55. He was unusually kneeling down with a tight noose around his neck which had been tied to a shower curtain rail.

Cleaners wanted to enter the room earlier on Thursday and after repeated knocks to the door it was decided to enter with a universal key card. She was still unable to enter and the front door to the room appeared to have been locked from the inside. A security Guard climbed over the adjoining balcony and entered the room and subsequently discovered the body of Mr. Ivanov.

Hotel staff confirmed he had checked into the Hotel on 25th December with his Russian Wife. He was known to drink heavily and had also been seen having serious arguments with her which escalated into physical confrontations, one of which was witnessed by staff in the lobby.

On 26th December the pairs tour guide was called to the Hotel following another argument which turned physical. The victim’s wife decided to leave the room and even took all her clothes with her.

A recently opened bottle of whisky was seen close to the body and before the results of a postmortem examination are received they suspect he was in a drunken state which normally leads to heightened emotions. Police think he decided to end his life due to the recent problems with his wife who had already left him and their room.

The case will remain open until the results of the postmortem are received and the Russian Embassy in Bangkok have been informed.

Pointing is of a good standard, not subtle, but done with gusto. The police officer seems confused and is, apparently, trying to record an interview.

Yes, quite a high standard of pointing there, They are getting a lot better at that

No, they're not.
It's become more indifferent reflex than motion.

You don't half spout a load of shat.

These types of suicides are 'insane' Come on a rope from the show curtain? Why not just jump out the window? Where do they get these ideas? It's almost comical. That kung fu star who died masterbating with a bag on his head and rope tied to his closet pole or whatever it was was even more reasonable. This is just amazing every time I see it.
