Twenty-one-year-old victim of random attack took his own life weeks later

A victim of a random attack outside a Welsh nightclub took his own life weeks later while waiting to access counselling, an inquest has heard. Twm Bryn, 21, was found dead in a shipping container at the back of his home in Chwilog on October 4, 2021.

The hearing at Caernarfon Coroners’ Court on Wednesday, February 15, heard how Mr Bryn had been set upon randomly by a father and son at Venu club in Pwllheli, NorthWalesLive reports. The two men admitted assault causing actual bodily harm, while a relative of the men also sent Mr Bryn an abusive message which he didn’t report because he felt he had too much going on with the ongoing case.

The court heard from witnesses who reported Mr Bryn had been presenting as suffering from a low mood. Such was their concern that he had been referred for counselling sessions but the waiting list remains several months long and he died before he received any counselling support.
