CHALONG, PHUKET: A 17-year-old student of the British International School died from an accidental electrocution on Christmas Day.
Chalong Police Investigator Boonlert Onklang identified the deceased as Anurak Gottschalk, son of a German photographer and his Thai companion who works as a cook aboard a tour boat.
At about 5:30pm, the boy’s German uncle and a housemaid found Anurak dead in the bathroom of their home in Chalong Village 9.
They went to check on the boy after realizing that he was taking an unusually long shower.
