He was Jonathan Tera Ngere, who was 34.

The police said as a result of a post mortem, and their inquiries, they were no longer treating Mr Ngere's death as suspicious.

They had earlier been looking at whether a fight between several people, shortly before Mr Ngere's body was found, could be linked to his death.

The death has been referred to the coroner.
