Overview
- The man was discovered inside a storage container on a company site in Suma Ward and was taken to hospital where he was confirmed dead after being found with knives lodged in his left eye and abdomen.
- Investigators identified the body as a 64‑year‑old local man after a judicial autopsy that concluded the cause of death was blood loss from the stab wounds.
- Police said the autopsy showed multiple hesitation cuts but no defensive wounds that typically appear when a victim fights an attacker.
- Security camera footage and scene inquiries indicate the man entered the container alone, but authorities have not ruled out either suicide or homicide and will continue forensic and background checks.
- The container is managed by a nearby fisheries company and stores fishing gear, and investigators are tracing access, timestamps and the man’s movements to establish how and when he came to be inside.
