Korber Oelmann’s Thai friend Narisara Kansao, 18, said the German was in Thailand on a vacation. He was found dead yesterday after they had a party on Friday night and drank alcohol.
Police said they found no evidence of either murder or physical violence.
Narisara said the German had earlier told her that he was prohibited from drinking under medical advice as it would affect the congenital disease he had. However, she said he overlooked the advice and drank every day.
Police have sent his body for autopsy to the Institute of Forensic Medicine to find out the cause of his death.
