A German man was found semi-conscious in his Naklua hotel
room after allegedly being drugged by a group of people he apparently met
earlier in the evening.
Police were called to the Naklua House apartments at 5
a.m. Oct. 19 by a suspicious neighbor who found Helmut Lemburg, 57, lying
face up on his bed, talking incoherently.
Police searched the ransacked room and found two beer
glasses from which they hope to retrieve fingerprints of the suspects.
A neighbor told police that Lemburg works as a baggage
handler at Dusseldorf airport. He said that earlier in the evening, 2 Thai
men and 1 transvestite had visited Lemburg for about an hour. After they
left, the unnamed neighbor became suspicious when his friend didn’t answer
the door, so he used his spare key to investigate. Finding Lemburg
semi-conscious, he called police.
Sawang Boriboon Foundation rescue workers performed first
aid before transferring Lemburg to hospital.
Police were waiting for Lemburg to recover to get his
statement.
