Russian Tourist Kills Himself in Airplane Toilet During Flight from Egypt

• Passenger Kills Himself in Airplane Toilet During Flight from Egypt

EKO HOT BLOG reports that a Russian tourist committed suicide while traveling from Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, to Samara, Russia.

Alexander Dokshin, 48, was claimed to have gotten up and gone to the restroom during takeoff, while passengers and crew were settling in their seats and fastening their seatbelts.

After around 15 minutes, flight attendants discovered the passenger had vanished and proceeded in search of him.

They attempted to open the toilet door, but it was jammed.

Passengers assisted the cabin crew in removing the door from its hinges, where the guy was discovered unconscious.

Three medical doctors on board tried to resuscitate the man but failed.

The plane then made an emergency landing at the nearest airport in Cairo and paramedics who arrived pronounced the father-of-one dead.

Passengers seated near the deceased man before his death said that he was acting strangely and talking to himself during the flight.

The man’s relatives subsequently confirmed that he did have mental problems after he had had a car accident in Thailand.

Police were summoned leading to a five hour delay as the death was investigated before the man’s body was loaded into the luggage compartment of the plane and the flight continued to Samara with his body and other passengers.

Russia’s transport investigative committee has launched a probe into Dokshin’s shocking death.
