Thomas Rick Michael (34) was found lifeless by his wife Restu Wilujeng at 6.39 am local time (GMT+7) in their rented house in Banjar Dukuh, Dalung Village, North Kuta, Badung District.
The couple were watching television from 9.30 pm local time on Friday, July 4, according to Restu Wilujeng.
Then Wilujeng went to the bedroom leaving Michael alone on the couch in front of the television set, where he finally fell asleep.
On Saturday Morning, Wilujeng did not find Michael on the couch, and went looking for him in the entire house. She found his body hanging in the backyard of their home.
Wilujeng immediately called her relative for help.
Michael was undergoing psychiatric therapy in Denpasar for his depression, which he had been suffering from for a long time before marrying Wilujeng.
They had rented the house in Dalung residence two years ago and lived there with their son. One of the daily activities of her husbands was surfing on the beach in Bali, Wilujeng said.
Based on preliminary investigations, there were no signs of violence on the victims body. The police personnel found a letter of apology and love addressed to his wife Wilujeng, his son and his mother, written in English. (Uu.A050/INE/KR-BSR/A014)
