Children Discover Body While Playing Hide-and-Seek

A grim discovery was made in the Betong district of Yala, Thailand, when a group of children playing hide-and-seek stumbled upon the body of a building caretaker. The incident occurred at a four-story bungalow, and authorities were alerted around 8:30 p.m.

Police, medical personnel, and rescue teams quickly arrived at the scene. The deceased was identified as Natthaworn, 34, found lying on the stairs leading to the roof, fully clothed in a gray T-shirt and blue jeans. Local residents reported that the children playing in the building were the first to notice the victim's presence and alerted a friend, who then went upstairs to help, only to find that the man had already passed away.

According to the victim's sister, Natthaworn had a history of mental health struggles. She revealed that he had attempted suicide twice before when they lived in their previous home, but family members successfully intervened on both occasions. She expressed surprise that he would attempt suicide again after moving to the bungalow.

The sister also noted that her brother rarely shared details about his personal life, though the family was aware he experienced stress and had pre-existing health issues. They lived separately, and she admitted they did not know the full extent of his struggles, as reported by Amarin TV.
