An autopsy conducted on a security guard who was arrested in Gombak yesterday had determined that he died of a heart attack, according to Selangor police.
Selangor police chief Arjunaidi Mohamed in a statement said post-mortem on S Sivabalan (above), 43, who died just an hour after being arrested by Gombak police, was conducted at Hospital Kuala Lumpur this morning.
"An inspection of the body was also conducted in the presence of their direct family members.
"The outcome of the inspection found no physical injuries on the body," said Arjunaidi.
"The family members of the deceased have also been informed of the cause of death by the hospital," he added.
Arjunaidi said the case has been classified as "sudden death", and that the completed investigations papers would be handed over to the Attorney-General's Chambers with a recommendation for an inquest to be conducted.
It was reported yesterday that Sivabalan suffered breathing difficulty 20 minutes after his arrest when he was taken to the Gombak police district headquarters.
Police contacted Hospital Selayang for assistance and paramedics arrived in an ambulance and provided emergency care.
However, he was pronounced dead soon after, Gombak police chief Arifai Tarawe reportedly said. - Mkini
