Forensic Institute Conducts Autopsy on Late Travel YouTuber 'Hlun Solo'
The Central Institute of Forensic Science has begun an autopsy on the body of travel YouTuber Baworntat Pengsuk, known as 'Hlun Solo', following his death while traveling in Georgia.
On August 6, 2026, the Central Institute of Forensic Science (CIFS) under the Ministry of Justice began an autopsy on the remains of Baworntat Pengsuk, a well-known Thai travel YouTuber professionally known as 'Hlun Solo'. The procedure follows a request from the deceased's family, who sought a detailed examination in Thailand to clarify the cause of death after he passed away while traveling in Georgia.
Assistant Professor Dr. Woravee Waiwuthi, Deputy Director of the CIFS, confirmed that the body has arrived in Thailand. A medical team has been appointed to conduct the examination, which is expected to take approximately two hours. Dr. Woravee noted that the institute has not yet received any autopsy results from Georgian authorities.
For travelers and residents, this case highlights the complexities involved in international medical emergencies and the repatriation of remains. The CIFS has emphasized that it will prioritize the rights of the deceased and their family regarding the disclosure of findings. Consequently, specific details regarding the cause of death will not be released to the public until the medical team has consulted with the family and received their consent. The institute is currently focused on completing the examination and coordinating the subsequent release of the body to the family for funeral arrangements.
