We discuss the possible enhancement of the tau lepton events, with the emphasis on the signals with three or more hadronic taus, at LHC when the left-handed stau doublet becomes light or even lighter than the right-handed one. This is the natural outcome of the supersymmetric seesaw models where the slepton doublet mass is suppressed by the effects of a large neutrino Yukawa coupling. We study a few representative parameter sets in the sneutrino coannihilation regions where the tau sneutrino is next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle and the stau coannihilation regions where the stau is next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle both of which yield the thermal neutralinolightest supersymmetric particle abundance determined by Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe.
