The Swedish man who was in his 30’s died Sunday after being involved in a serious accident in the holiday paradise of Koh Pha Ngan in Thailand.
Swedish Foreign Ministry confirmed that a Swedish man from central Sweden has been killed in a traffic accident, but can not provide any more details. According to Aftonbladet the Swede who was the father of a two-year-old son hit lamppost when he was on his way to a store on a moped.
“He broke his neck and died instantly,” said a relative to Aftonbladet.
Every winter, tens of thousands of Swedes traveling to the warmth of Thailand and Koh Phangan.
Helleo Dalpha, do you have more information about that man ?
I am worried for my friend, he is from sweden, but are in Thailand now.
Please reply !
The man stayed at our resort and I can say that the information from Swedish press is not accurate. What is true is that the person died instantly after losing control of his bike in a corner that has many accidents. The rescue worker told me it has been over 20 deaths in that corner over the years. He died instantly and he left a grieving girlfriend and brother on the island. I have read the police report and there was no sign of intoxication. I have talked to the rescue center, seen the pictures of the accident and talked to the witnesses on the location and everything verifies that’s a single accident where the driver lost control in that corner, and the body flipped up on a electrical pole and killed him instantly.
