He did not return until early the next morning, said Nguyen Hong Nhung, the hotel’s owner. “On the morning of October 8, I went by his room and heard loud snoring coming from inside,” Nhung said. On Thursday morning, assuming that Fu had gone out, Nhung assigned a housekeeper to clean the room. “After opening the door, the staffer was very surprised to see Fu lying naked on the floor. Some other workers were called for help, and they realized he was dead,” she said. The hotel reported the incident to the ward police, who examined the scene and removed the body from the hotel. Nhung said Fu could speak Vietnamese very well. Forensic experts are performing an autopsy to identify the cause of death. The police have collected information related to Fu from witnesses and are investigating the mysterious death, said Hoang Trung Thanh, chief of police of Hang Buom Ward.
