German tourist expires after
drinking session

Police were called to a North Pattaya hotel on June 27 following the death of foreign guest reported by the dead man’s girlfriend.

Officers arrived to find Bernhard Glasl, 56, of Germany lying in bed. An inspection showed no signs of a struggle and the body was transported to the forensic institute for a post mortem.

Glasl’s girlfriend, Pornsiri Sattiladnar, 33, told police she had stayed with the deceased for three days and in that time learned that he had a heart problem. She went on to say that Glasl would go out drinking every night. On the morning of his death, she said she had arrived back at the hotel around 5 a.m. She noticed that Glasl was snoring unusually loudly, as if “something was stuck in his nasal passages.” She observed for a while before falling asleep and waking up at around 8.30 to find him dead.

Police surmise that the man died of a heart attack in his sleep after continual heavy drinking sprees.
