Bangkok, Evidence from the forensic examination has revealed that toxic substances in the coffee flask that the Vietnamese man had drunk from, which he had prepared himself, were highly potent and could cause immediate death. Pol. Lt. Gen. Trairong Phiwpaen, commander of the Police Forensic Science Office, Royal Thai Police, said that yesterday evidence was collected from the scene for examination, which was an aluminum thermos, not from the hotel. The deceased brought it themselves. Inside was a black liquid, which was black Americano coffee, and six cups of coffee that had been drunk, as well as three or four other items of food on the table that had been ordered from the hotel. The latest initial examination results found that the liquid in the black coffee in one of the two stainless steel water bottles at the scene, which the deceased brought himself and did not belong to the hotel, was mixed with toxic substances. As for what kind of toxic substance it is, we will inform the investigation team before another press conference. As for whether potassium cyanide or KCN was found in the water in the flask, the initial examination results have now come out with one thing: the liquid in the flask, which is a clear and obvious result that caused death. If you look at it with your eyes, it looks like black coffee, but it can be said that a type of toxic substance was found. As for whether it is severe enough to cause immediate death or not, and how much toxic substance is present, please do not disclose it yet because we will wait for all the information and there will be a press conference to give all the details again.
