Did he tie his legs together?
Whatever, the rate of foreign deaths this year is alarming.

There is speculation that it was actually a staged murder.

Swiss Man Found Dead in a Hotel Strangled and with His Legs Tied: However Police Say It's a Suicide
Phnom Penh: The body of a Swiss man was discovered lying dead on a bed in a room 105, on the first floor of Moona Hotel. He was found at dusk in the evening of the 30th of May. This hotel is located on Street 1986, Sen Sok
According to the written essentials (check in details) of the above man, the dead man is called ZurcherDaviel Georg (sic.), 46 years old, Swiss, who arrived in Cambodia as a tourist.
The body of victim was discovered face up on a bed in room 205 which he was staying in, also on the body was a small thin karma tightened around his neck, as for his legs, both were tied together with a cord. (ហើយនៅដងខ្លួនគាត់មានក្រមាតូចស្តើង រឹតនៅជាប់ត្រង់ក.របស់គាត់ ចំណែកឯជើងទាំង២មានខ្សែចងភ្ជាប់គ្នា។)
Colonel Mak Hong, a police inspector at Sen Sok police inspectorate, said that this case, according to the deductions of the skilled police who had inspected the body, was death by hanging of the neck killed by himself (he committed suicide) and he had over injected an injectable drug into his veins សពបានស្លាប់ដោយចងក សម្លាប់ខ្លួនឯង (ធ្វើអត្ថឃាត) និងបានប្រីប្រាស់ថ្នាំញៀនប្រភេទចាក់បញ្ចូលក្នុងសរសៃ ជ្រុលលើសកម្រិត . The police have taken a urine sample of the deceased to test to see what drug he had injected into his blood.
According to non-official conjecture and judging by the state of the body of the deceased it is more likely to be murder; that is the victim was killed and robbed and then a krama was tied around the neck of the victim to create a false trail for the police and lead them to infer that this was a case of suicide (killing himself) with the victim leaving a little bit of money in his pockets.
But what is most strongly puzzling is that if the victim killed himself, why is the body lying face up on the bed with a satisfied expression on his face and, furthermore, with his legs tied together?
--------
Hang Meas TV add that the victim had been staying in the hotel since the 26th of May, and was paying $20 a night, on the 29th he asked the reception to go and buy medicine for him, the hotel didn't know what type it was but went off (I presume with a written note from the victim) to buy it. The victim then left his room in his underwear to collect it and pay $20 for his last night's stay and told them he wasn't to be disturbed as he needed to rest. When he was found dead, the other bed in the room had various drug packets on it.

Say if he did want to commit suicide by injecting a deliberate overdose of whatever. Why would he tie his legs together? To stop himself running away if he woke up?
However it looks like it could be some sort of tourniquet. Trying to strangle yourself with a krama while lying down sounds a bit strange though.

I love the consistency: in this case, murder is considered possible, but a guy cuts off his own head, puts his own body into a suitcase and drives into a pond, and it's obviously suicide.

Do murders usually tie people's fee together before killing them? Do they usually tie people's feet together when staging a suicide? No, they do not.Lucky Lucan wrote: Yeah, especially when their feet are tied together. Odd, isn't it?
I accept that Cambodian police are generally incompetent at determining cause of death, but they are still infinitely more competent than the Khmer440 peanut gallery.
