Preah Sihanouk Province: A Frenchman has been found dead at the scene after committing suicide with a K59 pistol by firing a bullet through his right ear that pierced through his left ear. The extraordinary event occurred at 8:30 in the evening of the 2nd of May, 2012, in a rented building in Group 29, Village 3, Commune 3, Sihanoukville.
General Tak Vanta, the provincial Chief of Police stated that the Frenchman who killed himself was ‘KURJANSKI GIRARD PIERRE,’ a 33 year old holding passport #‘09AX09911.’ He was a tourist who had entered Cambodia by the Phnom Penh International Airport, and had been renting a room for the past 7 months.
The general continued to state that, after the team of experts had finished their examination, they were able to conclude that the death was a suicide. The victim had put the barrel of the gun to his ear while sitting on his bed and then pulled the trigger, causing the bullet to pierce through his right ear and to exit through his left. Regarding this case, the general is presently conducting an investigation to resolve a couple of questions: Firstly, what was the motive for the suicide? And secondly, how did this foreigner acquire a gun?
According to the statement of a friend of the victim ‘LIFURE OLIER,’ a 42 year old male of the same nationality with victim, he had seen his friend running from a bungalow heading towards his room just before the shooting. He (‘LIFURE OLIER,’) then ran off in pursuit of his friend. A few moments later, hearing a gunshot in his friend’s room, he had arrived to see his friend lying in a pool of blood on his bed mattress. He could give no clear motive as to what might have prompted the suicide.
The body has been handed over to representatives of the French Embassy pending future arrangements.
