(UPDATE) A passenger has committed suicide inside a Gulf Air plane that landed in Manila Wednesday, a police official said.

The passenger, identified as Marlon Cueva, 36, and a Filipino overseas worker, was found dead inside the Gulf Air plane’s comfort room, said Senior Superintendent Napoleon Cuaton, Pasay City Chief of Police.

Cueva, an electrician working abroad for over a year, was on board Gulf Air’s Flight 154 from Bahrain. It was a connecting flight to Manila from Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.

Police quoted other passengers as saying that Cueva was already uneasy before take-off during their Bahrain connecting flight.

“Hindi daw mapakali, umiikot ikot sa eroplano at nagsasabing ‘patawarin ako at marami akong kasalanan’,” Cuaton told Yahoo! Southeast Asia in a phone interview.

Passengers said that Cueva did not elaborate on his “sins,” Cuaton said.

Gulf Air crew then asked Cueva to take a seat, although he continued rambling almost all throughout the flight.

It was minutes before the plane landed when the crew noticed Cueva wasn’t in his seat and was later found inside the plane’s comfort room, said Cuaton.

“Nakita siya may tali sa leeg nakaupo sa lavatory mismo,” Cuaton added.

A nurse on board volunteered to administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to Cueva but was unable to revive the victim.

Police were not looking at foul play in Cueva’s death.
