DAVOS, Jan 26 (Reuters) - The police commander heading security at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland was found dead on Tuesday, local authorities said, adding that his death appeared to be suicide.

Markus Reinhardt, head of police in the Swiss canton of Graubuenden, was found dead in his hotel in Davos, police said in a statement on their website.

"All indications point to a suicide," the statement said.

WEF founder and executive founder Klaus Schwab said in a statement that the organisers appreciated Reinhardt's professionalism and kindness over years of co-operation.

"The Security Forces continue to have our full confidence and trust in their work," the statement said.

Reinhardt, 61, had headed the canton's police force since 1984. (Reporting by Sven Egenter; Editing by Dominic Evans)

Why would a Swiss policeman commit suicide? Sounds like the world’s easiest (if boring) job.

They are currently working on HOW he tied his hands behind his back after shooting himself. Just call Hillary. She probably has some experience.

Maybe it’s a signal.

What was the method?

If suicide by polonium, the message will be loud and clear.

This is, along with the shots fired in Korea, the most telling story of the day, and the most important, IMHO.

The D.C. Madam committed suicide. So did her assistant.

Kathleen Wiley’s husband, Vince Foster, and Marilyn Monroe.

Nothing to see here folks.

The world is in economic turmoil...the Head of Security at the World Economic Forum reportedly commits suicide.

Coincidence? Or did he uncover ‘sensitive’ information and got Arkancided?

Sounds like a movie script with Matt Damon...
