Bangkok - A 43-year-old Thai man was found dead wearing 15 bras and a mini-skirt belonging to his estranged wife, news reports said on Wednesday.

Jaran Khadphano was found dead on Tuesday from a suspected heart attack at his home in Roi Et, 400km north-east of Bangkok, the Thai-language Khao Sod newspaper reported.

Relatives of the man, who formerly worked as an optician in Bangkok, told police he had been suffering depression since his wife left him for another man and had been taking painkillers washed down with coffee several times a day.

Doctor Thanakorn Klangsaeng of Roi Et Hospital said he suspected Jaran had died of a heart attack.

There was no immediate explanation for why the deceased was wearing his wife's clothes, which he had brought back with him from Bangkok after the couple's separation. - Sapa-dpa
