A British tourist has been arrested after a naked Thai prostitute plunged five floors to her death as they had “very strange, extravagant s3x” on a hotel balcony. Reece Vella, 25, was detained at around 4pm local time yesterday after 26-year-old Wannipa Janhuathon fell to her death in Pattaya, Thailand.
The prostitute plunged naked along with a half-empty packet of s3x drugs from an apartment in the notorious tourist resort, it is reported.
She suffered severe head injuries and multiple fractures following the tragedy, which occurred in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Police searched the empty room – finding clothes and used condoms – before launching a manhunt for the tourist amid suspicions he had fled the scene.
Vella was arrested at the nearby Route CC Roadhouse bar yeseterday.
The suspect, from Birmingham, West Midlands, was filmed producing two mobile phones from his pockets – one of which police claim was Wannipa’s handset.
Police Lieutenant Narong Chantra, deputy head of investigations at Pattaya Police, said Vella had been arrested on suspicion of “negligence causing others to die”.
He said the suspect had fled the scene in panic knowing that he was staying in the country illegally on an expired visa.
Devastated staff at the venue, whose owner also passed away a few months ago, said Wannipa was one of the “happiest, friendliest girls anybody could wish to meet”.
