Footage has emerged showing some of the last movements of those who died after a suspected cyanide poisoning at a Bangkok hotel.<\/p>\n

The CCTV video, focusing on an internal courtyard, captures five of the six victims at the luxury Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel in Thailand.<\/p>\n

It initially shows a man, one of the guests, jogging across the courtyard ahead of the others.<\/p>\n

He is followed by four other members of the group, who go through the same doorway.<\/p>\n

Two other men, who appear to be members of staff, carry deliveries to the same door as well.<\/p>\n

The footage was taken on Monday, and shows some of their latest known movements on the same day they were last seen alive.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, local police said traces of cyanide had been found in cups and two teapots<\/a><\/strong> in the hotel room and that poisoning was the most likely cause of death.<\/p>\n

The four Vietnamese nationals and two Vietnamese Americans were found by a hotel staff member in the room, which was locked from the inside.<\/p>\n

Food had been ordered by room service<\/a><\/strong>, but it had been left untouched aside from the drinks which had been consumed.<\/p>\n

Four of the bodies were found in the living room and two others in the bedroom.<\/p>\n

Police said that two of the victims appeared to have tried to make it to the door, but collapsed and died.<\/p>\n

Hotel records showed there were no other visitors to the room.<\/p>\n

Police Lieutenant General Trairong Phiwpan, head of the Thai police force’s forensic division, told a news conference on Wednesday one of the six is believed to be the one who committed the murders.<\/p>\n

“After staff brought teacups and two hot water bottles, milk and teapots… one of the six introduced cyanide,” he said.<\/p>\n

Interviews with relatives of the dead revealed there had been a dispute over debt, police added.<\/p>\n

It was also said there could have been a conflict among the six regarding investments worth millions.<\/p>\n

The three dead women have been named as 46-year-old Nguyen Thi Phuong, Sherine Chong, 56, and Nguyen Thi Phuong Lan, also 46.<\/p>\n

The male victims are Tran Dinh Phu, 37, Dang Hung Van, 55, and 49-year-old Hong Thanh Pham.<\/p>\n

The six were last seen alive when the meal was delivered to the room on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The Vietnamese government said its embassy in Bangkok was working with Thai authorities on the case, while the US State Department said it was monitoring the situation.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
