Chiang Mai: Four deaths in one hotel ‘not coincidence’

The father of Wellington tourist Sarah Carter wants the Thai hotel she stayed in closed and a more thorough investigation carried out into her death.

His comments come after it was revealed there had been three other unexplained deaths of people who stayed in the same Downtown Inn in Chiang Mai, in northern Thailand.

Miss Carter, 23, and her two travelling companions Amanda Eliason, 24, and Emma Langlands, 23, became seriously ill at the hotel in February and Ms Carter died a day later in a Thai hospital. The other two have recovered.
