A senior police officer said the death appeared to be the result of a cardiac arrest, although the exact cause would be established following the post-mortem report.
The registration of an unnatural death case is a procedural step to investigate the circumstances of a death and does not, in itself, indicate foul play. Further enquiries are ongoing.
