A German man who fled to Pattaya after an argument
with his wife in Suphanburi was found dead in his rented South Pattaya
room of an apparent suicide.
The body of Siegfried Kosbue, 56, was found hanging
from an electrical cord at the PK Apartment on Soi Sukhumvit 79.
Neighbors called police after seeing his door ajar and hearing loud
music playing for two continuous days.
Investigating officers found no signs of attack or
theft in the room and presume Kosbue killed himself.
Kosbue’s wife, Urai, 40, said they had been married
for three years, living in Suphanburi. But about a week ago, she said,
Siegfried got drunk and got into an argument with her and their
19-year-old son. When he hit the teen, Kosbue said, she threatened to
call the police. He packed his bags and left.
She said she never imagined her husband would go to
Pattaya and kill himself.
