1. Cyanide poisoning was the likely cause of [death of six people ](https://inews.co.uk/news/world/six-foreigners-killed-bangkok-police-3173286?ico=most_popular)who died in a luxury hotel suite in [Thailand](https://inews.co.uk/topic/thailand?ico=in-line_link), local police have said.

   The bodies of two American and four Vietnamese nationals were discovered by housekeepers at the Grand Hyatt Erawan in central Bangkok on Tuesday.

   The deadly chemical was found on drinking glasses and a teapot in the hotel room, police said. Authorities suspect money and debt were the driving motive behind the poisoning after a husband and wife had invested money with two of the other victims.

   “We found cyanide in the teacups, all six cups we found cyanide,” Maj-Gen Trirong Phiwpan, commander of the Thai police evidence office, told a press conference.

   “After staff brought teacups and two hot water bottles, milk and teapots… one of the six introduced cyanide.”

   The results of a post-mortem were expected within the next day, police said.

   Deputy Bangkok police chief, General Noppassin Poonsawat, said the group had checked into their accommodation separately over the weekend.

   On Monday afternoon, food and tea was delivered to the room around 2pm local time (8am BST) but it appeared largely untouched and pictures emerged of it still wrapped in clingfilm. According to the deputy police chief, a waiter offered to make tea for the guests but this was refused.

   Nobody was seen leaving or entering the room, before a hotel maid discovered the bodies 24 hours later.

   Police say there were no signs of any forced entry or robbery.

4. Netflix is on the phone right now for the rights for the movie.

5. I’m totally confused, why would you wrap hot food in cling film?

6. Did they play the “Russian tea” game but put the cyanide in the teapot instead of just one cup?

7. Good job 47, now head for the neareat exit.

8. One night in Bangkok and the world’s your oyster
   The bars are temples but their pearls ain’t free
   You’ll find a god in every golden cloister
   And if you’re lucky, then the god’s a she

9. Was they working for Boeing?

10. So you got duped by someone and lost your investment. So you convinced some people you could make them lots of money and you were wrong. It’s just money. So sad.

11. Hey ! You are not supposed to do that !

12. Waiting to see this in the hitman sub rn

13. no new friends

14. Suicide?

15. What does the “introduced the cyanide” mean. Does it mean this person literally said ‘hey here is the cyanide let’s drink this stuff and all die’ or does it mean the person put it in the tea? I am so confused. Was this a murder or a suicide?

16. As someone who has an unhealthy obsession with Jonestown… man, that is not a peaceful way to go. Truly awful.

17. Surely there are more refreshing drinks.
