The tourist was identified as Samuel Frederic, 38, from Oklahoma. Pol Lt Col Anek Chaiwong, deputy commander of the Phuping police station, said the tourist was found hanging from a strip torn from his travelling bag and tied to a bar of the bedstead. Anek said there were five bottles of foreign whisky in the man’s bag, each partially consumed. A maid seeking to clean the room in the evening found the body. An autopsy will be performed at Maharaj Nakhon Chiang Mai Hospital.
