Pattaya —
A young Indian tourist plunged to his death from the 45th floor of a condominium complex in south Pattaya on the night of November 22nd.
The incident occurred at approximately 11:00 PM at a condominium, whose name was withheld pending a full investigation, located in Moo 12, Nongprue sub-district, Banglamung district, Chonburi province. Pattaya police and emergency response teams coordinated and rushed to the scene upon receiving the report.
At the 46-floor condo, the body of a 25-year-old Indian man, whose name was withheld pending family notification, was found beside a swimming pool situated on the 6th floor. He sustained severe injuries, including fractures to his limbs, torso, and a fractured skull. Pattaya authorities immediately cordoned off the scene to prevent unauthorized access before the rescue units transferred the body to a nearby hospital for a postmortem.
According to the police’s initial interviews with the victim’s friends, the victim jumped from the balcony of his 45th-floor room. The friends mentioned that the victim had been traveling with them to Pattaya for two days. Prior to the incident, he had reportedly had a dispute over the phone with his partner in his home country, which prompted him to suddenly step out onto the balcony.
The friends recounted that they witnessed the victim standing on the balcony alone before he suddenly leaped to his death. Upon regaining their composure, they informed the condominium staff, who subsequently alerted the authorities.
Pattaya police are reviewing CCTV footage to determine the precise cause of the incident. The victim’s family and embassy will be contacted.
