On Tuesday morning at 10:00 am the body of Finnish National Mr. Kilvonen Unto Ilmari was found at the foot of a building in Soi Watboonkanchanaram.

Mr. Mr.Kilvonen Unto Ilmari a 78 year old native of Finland is thought to have gone up to the 10th floor of the building at Angket Pattaya, Soi Watboonkanchanaram before jumping to his death.

Mr. Kilvonen’s body was found at the scene bloodied and with broken limbs. Wearing only a T-shirt and Shorts he was located lying dead near the parking ramp wall.

Officers went to his room on the fourth floor to check and found a suicide note on the dining table.

A Thai resident who took care of the building said that the deceased lived there for over 10 years. She said Mr. Ilmari often complained that the stress of his many problems had made him ill.

The woman added that she just worked as a maid to sometimes take care of Mr. Ilmai and clean his room. She had no idea that he would commit suicide in that way.

Pattaya police have taken his body to the Forensic Institute at the Police Hospital to perform an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. They intend to coordinate with the embassy regarding the death.

Initial reports suggest the primary reason is likely due to stress and related persistent health problems.
