Police said that Griffiths, 58, had fallen from the 17th floor of a flat block in the seaside resort city of Pattaya on February 9.
The police went to the scene and found the body of a British national, whom they identified as Quentin John Griffiths, on the ground directly below the balcony, they said.
Police said initial investigations suggested suicide, and there were no indications of foul play. CCTV showed no sign of anybody entering his flat, where he had lived alone, but his body has been sent for an autopsy, they added.
“The motive is still being investigated,” said police officer Kosala Ngamphong.
