Physicians at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital reported that preliminary post-mortem findings indicated the victims’ deaths were caused by cyanide poisoning and that each victim’s body contained evidence of the lethal chemical that acts quickly.
The results indicating the precise amounts of cyanide in each victim’s blood are still awaited by the medical staff.
According to Dr. Kornkiat Vongpaisarnsin, the deceased’s CAT scans revealed no evidence of blunt force injuries.
The three men and three women were most likely killed by cyanide poisoning, according to information released by Thai police early this morning.
A member of the hotel staff discovered the four Vietnamese nationals and two Vietnamese Americans in the locked room.
The room service order’s food was discovered unopened, but the drinks had been sipped.
Two of the victims were found in the bedroom, and four in the living room.
According to the police, two of the victims seemed to have reached for the door of their hotel room but passed out before they could.
There were no other guests in the room, according to hotel records.
The head of the forensic branch of the Thai police force, Lieutenant General Trairong Phiwpan, stated at a news conference on Wednesday that one of the six is the one who killed people at the Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel.
