Man found dead after tenant downstairs said ‘smelly liquid’ leaked through their ceiling

A middle-aged Thai man was found dead yesterday in his apartment outside Bangkok after a tenant on the lower floor reported “smelly black liquid” leaking through their ceiling.

Following the tenant’s complaint, a worker at the apartment building in Samutprakarn’s Bangphli District, went to the room of Suwat Chanwang, 41, but no one answered the door. Using a master key to open the unit, they found Suwat dead on his mattress.

To the shock of the landlord and residents in the building, it was presumed Suwat had been dead for at least three days. They alerted the police, Morning News reported.

Suwat, who had reportedly lived alone in the building for two years, was last seen on Aug. 2.

Reports said Suwat that had no wounds on his body, and the suspicious “black liquid” that leaked through the apartment on the lower floor could have been body fluid.
