A British woman, who tragically died after the alleged drinking of a toxic lemoncell in Vietnam, sent her family’s latest news to her family.
According to police reports, Greta Marie Otteson (33 years) and her South African fiancée Els Ao Quinton (36 years) was found dead in their hotel rooms on the Boxing Day. The couple, who recently announced his involvement in YouTube video, spent Christmas in the coastal city of Hoi An, Vietnam.
The couple moved to Vietnam in February of the previous year.
The investigation suggests that Otteson and Quinton bought homemade lemoncello from a local restaurant on Christmas Eve, which the authorities believe they could be contaminated with methanol.
It was also reported that two other bottles of Limoncella from another nearby restaurant were delivered to the steam hotel.
Forensic analysis confirmed that Limoncello delivered to the hotel was, according to sources close to families, a source of their poisoning.
Otteson later sent her parents a disturbing final report of WhatsApp, described the “worst hangover ever” and noted that she had experienced black places in her vision.
Otteson, originally from Wales, and Quinton, a musician and a livestreamer, tried to relax. The local owner of the bar, described as a close friend, offered to take them to the hospital, but refused.
Tragically, a few hours later Otteson was discovered dead in her hotel room and Quinton was found in his room nearby.
The authorities have confirmed that there are no signs of burglary and couples, including their phones, were left unaffected.
The British foreign office also confirmed that it is helping Otteson’s family and connecting with local authorities.
This incident comes after a series of tourist deaths and serious illnesses in Laos, attributed to suspicion of methanol poisoning.
Methanol, toxic industrial chemicals, can be found in common products such as fuel, solvents and color thinners. Although it resembles ethanol, alcohol found in drinks, methanol is not safe for human consumption, with only 25 ml dead.
Symptoms of poisoning may include nausea, dizziness, vomiting, abdominal pain and visual impairment. The poison often takes up to 24 hours to show symptoms after consumption.
Otteson’s parents, Susan and Paul, expressed their devastation in their statement and said Greta and Ao were experienced passengers who found their perfect home and were incredibly happy.
Since then, Paul Otteson has emphasized the determination of the family to seek justice for a couple. “Our goal is to bring those who are responsible for the supply of alcohol, which killed Greta and Ao to justice,” he said. “At some point we will organize a commemorative service for them.”
Both families expressed their shared wishes to be honored together and are
closely cooperate with the authorities to ensure liability for persons involved in this tragedy.
