According to information from one of the witnesses named I Nyoman Merta, he became suspicious when a delivery man came to the man’s hotel room on Monday afternoon. After a few minutes of knocking on the victim’s door, Merta decided to help the delivery man by peeking through a crack on his window and he saw the victim laying down on the floor. Shortly after, Merta and hotel staff broke the door down in attempts to rescue the man. After realizing that he was already dead, the witness immediately reported the incident to the police.
