BANGKOK, Thailand – The remains of popular Thai travel vlogger Bowornthat Pengsuk, widely known online as “Hlun Solo,” have officially arrived in Thailand from Georgia and were immediately transferred for a secondary autopsy. The repatriation follows his mysterious death in a Tbilisi hotel room last month, which prompted an international search by his family after he went missing.

Upon landing in Bangkok, the 26-year-old content creator’s body was transported directly to the Central Institute of Forensic Science under the Justice Ministry. The family requested this additional post-mortem examination to guarantee complete transparency and thoroughness regarding the exact cause of death. This secondary forensic review is expected to take up to two days to complete, after which the remains will be released to the family for religious funeral rites at their home. Specific details regarding the memorial service will be announced by the family once all forensic and administrative procedures are finalized.
The complex repatriation process was closely coordinated by the Thai Embassy in Ankara, which oversees consular jurisdiction for Georgia, alongside Thai volunteers and a specialized international transport company. The vlogger’s brother confirmed that the diplomatic mission had formally requested Georgian authorities to expedite the release of the official autopsy and toxicology reports to Thai officials, alongside the prompt return of the deceased’s personal belongings. A prospective honorary consul and local volunteer networks monitored the logistical transfer to ensure a seamless transition for the grieving family.

The tragic incident unfolded late last month when the vlogger was discovered dead in his hotel room in the Georgian capital. Local police launched an investigation after hotel staff entered the room, noting that the guest had checked in but never exited the premises during his stay. Authorities confirmed that all of his personal belongings remained untouched in the room at the time of the discovery. The family only learned of his passing nearly two weeks later after launching a desperate public appeal on social media to help locate him. The exact cause of death remains under active investigation by Georgian law enforcement as Thai authorities await the results of the domestic forensic review.
