Overview
- Quentin Griffiths, 58, fell from the 17th floor of his Pattaya condominium on February 9 and was found dead below his balcony.
- Thai police say they are not treating the death as suspicious, citing a room locked from the inside, CCTV showing only Griffiths entering, and a post-mortem with no signs of foul play.
- Ploy Kringsinthanakun has sought the immediate return of their two children, arguing a standing joint-custody order after the children were placed with paternal relatives.
- Police and media reports state Griffiths was convicted in October of falsifying documents in a dispute worth about £500,000 and received an 18‑month sentence that he was appealing.
- Friends and police described heavy drinking and erratic behavior in the days before his death, and a friend said he had been seeing a psychiatrist; ASOS issued a statement expressing condolences.
