Officers from the Chaloem Phra Kiat Police Station, who arrived with medical and rescue officials, surmised the man had been dead for four hours. He was not wearing a shirt and there were no injuries on his body. The man’s name has not been released.
His wife Samran said her husband, who worked as a welder in Samut Prakan province and had returned home after losing his job due to the Covid-19 crisis, may have killed himself because he was not able to provide for household.
She also said that they had recently quarrelled over money.
Samran said though she has a job and earns enough to cover daily expenses, her husband may have killed himself over worries of their soon-to-be-born child and his work situation.
