Indian tourist Abhishek Jagannath Kunjir, 42, was seriously injured after a mysterious early-morning fall from a seven-storey Pattaya hotel. He was found conscious but badly hurt in the car park, with both wrists apparently fractured and severe back injuries. Yet police cannot establish which floor he fell from, despite his room being registered on the third floor. Hotel staff say tour-group members sometimes swap rooms without notifying reception. Rescue workers also detected the smell of alcohol, although police found no evidence of assault or foul play. CCTV footage is now central to tracing his movements during the few hours between his late-night arrival and the 6.49 am emergency call.

An Indian tourist was left seriously injured after mysteriously falling from a seven-storey Pattaya hotel early on September 4. Police are now combing through CCTV footage to establish where he fell from and exactly what happened.

The drama unfolded at 6.49 am at a hotel on Soi Buakhao 15 in Pattaya City. The property is in Nong Prue subdistrict, Bang Lamung district, Chonburi province. At that point, the Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Foundation Rescue Radio Centre received an urgent call. A foreign tourist had fallen from a height and was badly hurt.

Within minutes, rescue personnel raced to the hotel. Pattaya City Police were also alerted and officers headed to the scene. There, rescuers found Abhishek Jagannath Kunjir, 42, lying in the parking area. The Indian tourist was sprawled on the ground directly outside the seven-storey building.

Indian tourist suffers serious wrist and back injuries after mysterious early-morning Pattaya hotel fall

Mr Abhishek was conscious but groaning in severe pain. Both wrists appeared fractured following the heavy impact. In addition, rescue workers found that he had suffered serious injuries to his back. He could still speak and communicate with the emergency team.

Notably, Mr Abhishek complained particularly of severe pain in his back. Rescue workers also detected the smell of alcohol while treating him. Despite his injuries, he remained conscious throughout the initial rescue operation.

First, emergency workers provided urgent first aid at the hotel. They then prepared Mr Abhishek for immediate transfer. Soon afterwards, an ambulance rushed him to the emergency department at Pattaya Memorial Hospital.

Behind them, however, police faced a mystery. Officers knew where the injured tourist had landed. They did not know where he had fallen from.

The answer was not as straightforward as checking the hotel’s register. Mr Abhishek had arrived in Pattaya with an Indian tour group. Significantly, the group had checked into the hotel only late the previous night. Therefore, the fall happened just hours after his arrival.

Room 312 mystery deepens as police cannot establish which floor Indian tourist fell from at Pattaya hotel

Hotel records showed that Mr Abhishek had been allocated room 312. His registered room was on the third floor. Yet the building itself rises seven storeys, and staff immediately raised another complication.

According to hotel employees, members of tour groups sometimes swap rooms after checking in. Crucially, they can make those changes without informing reception. As a result, police could not confirm Mr Abhishek had remained in room 312.

That uncertainty immediately widened the investigation. Police needed to establish which room the Indian visitor had actually occupied. Separately, they had to determine which floor he was on immediately before the fall.

Neither answer was available during the initial examination. Although room 312 was registered in his name, investigators could not confirm he fell from there. Moreover, they could not immediately identify the precise point on the building where the fall began.

In response, police turned to the hotel’s CCTV system. Investigators planned a detailed review of the security recordings. The footage could trace Mr Abhishek’s movements after the group’s late-night arrival.

CCTV footage may reveal whether Indian tourist switched rooms before mysterious fall at Pattaya hotel

In particular, cameras could show whether he returned to room 312 after checking in. They could also reveal whether he later moved to another room. Likewise, footage could establish whether he travelled between different floors during the night.

At the same time, Pattaya City Police conducted a detailed examination of the parking area. Officers meticulously photographed the scene and inspected the location where Mr Abhishek was found. They also searched for evidence that another person had been involved.

Initially, police reported finding no signs of foul play. Officers also found no evidence indicating that another person had assaulted Mr Abhishek. Nevertheless, the exact circumstances surrounding his plunge remained unexplained.

Another detail quickly became part of the inquiry. Rescue workers had detected the smell of alcohol on the injured tourist. Accordingly, police considered intoxication during their preliminary assessment of the incident.

However, investigators had not established that alcohol caused the fall. Instead, they required CCTV footage to determine the sequence of events. The recordings became central to establishing what happened inside the hotel before 6.49 am.

Police reconstruct Indian tourist’s final movements after late-night check-in and mysterious hotel fall

In parallel, police needed to identify Mr Abhishek’s final known location inside the building. That meant tracing his movements through the hotel after checking in. Investigators also needed to determine the floor he occupied immediately before the incident.

The timing made that task sharply defined. Mr Abhishek had arrived with his fellow Indian tourists late on September 3. By early September 4, he was lying seriously injured outside the hotel.

Thus, police were reconstructing only several hours of activity. Yet uncertainty over the group’s room arrangements complicated that work. Registration records could provide a starting point, but they could not settle the issue.

Room 312 remained an important focus. The third-floor room was officially allocated to Mr Abhishek when the group checked in. Still, staff could not guarantee he was inside that room before the fall.

Consequently, investigators needed to match hotel records against the security recordings. Information from other members of the Indian tour group could also help. Police planned to contact the group’s tour leader as the inquiry continued.

Travel insurance covers ฿500,000 as seriously injured Indian tourist receives emergency hospital treatment

Meanwhile, Mr Abhishek was undergoing emergency hospital treatment for his injuries. Rescue workers had recorded apparent fractures to both wrists and severe back injuries. However, the supplied reports contained no subsequent detailed medical assessment from Pattaya Memorial Hospital.

On another front, hotel representatives confirmed that the tourist had travel insurance. The policy reportedly provided approximately ฿500,000 in medical coverage. Officials subsequently coordinated the insurance information to assist with his treatment expenses.

The policy became immediately relevant because of the seriousness of his injuries. Mr Abhishek required emergency treatment shortly after arriving in Pattaya. Nevertheless, he had remained conscious and responsive while rescuers worked at the hotel.

As part of the investigation, police also planned to ensure his relatives were informed. The tour leader was similarly expected to become involved as officers gathered information. No public statement from the tour operator appeared in the supplied reports.

Likewise, no public statement from Indian consular officials was contained in the available information. The hotel itself was also not publicly named. However, reports clearly located the property on Soi Buakhao 15 in Pattaya.

Police struggle to pinpoint where Indian tourists’ fall began as hotel room records leave key questions

By then, police had established several firm points. Mr Abhishek had arrived with an Indian tour group late the previous night. Hotel records placed him in room 312 on the third floor.

Yet those same hotel staff warned that group members sometimes exchanged rooms privately. Consequently, the register could not prove where Mr Abhishek had actually spent the hours before the incident.

More importantly, investigators still lacked the crucial starting point of the fall. They knew where the tourist landed but not where his descent began. The seven-storey building therefore remained under close examination.

Furthermore, police could not initially establish the height from which Mr Abhishek had fallen. They could not confirm whether he came from the third floor or another level. The precise location on the building was similarly unresolved.

For that reason, CCTV footage offered the strongest available record of his movements. Cameras could show him entering corridors, common areas or different floors. They could also establish whether he returned to his officially assigned room.

CCTV becomes central evidence as police trace Indian tourist’s movements before mysterious Pattaya fall

Additionally, investigators could use the recordings to identify his last movements before the fall. Those images could then be compared with the hotel’s registration records. Police could also check that information against accounts from his travelling companions.

The physical aftermath, however, was already clear. Mr Abhishek was found badly injured in the parking area outside the hotel. Both wrists appeared broken, while his back had sustained severe injuries.

Yet the initial police inspection produced no evidence of an attack. Officers found no signs of foul play or evidence of assault by another person. Therefore, the investigation remained centred on establishing the circumstances of the fall itself.

No evidence of assault found as police focus inquiry on circumstances surrounding Indian tourist’s fall

The unanswered questions were stark. Which room was Mr Abhishek actually using? Which floor was he on? Where exactly did he fall from? Finally, what happened immediately beforehand?

Police now expect the hotel’s CCTV recordings to help answer those questions. Until that review is completed, the precise sequence remains unclear.

What is established is the tight timeline. Mr Abhishek checked into the Pattaya hotel with his tour group late at night. Hours later, at 6.49 am, rescuers received the emergency call.

Minutes afterwards, the 42-year-old was found seriously injured beneath the seven-storey property. Rescue workers treated him before rushing him to Pattaya Memorial Hospital.

Behind them, Pattaya City Police photographed the scene and began reconstructing his movements. Now, CCTV footage is at the centre of the investigation into the mysterious early-morning fall.
