Autopsy results reveal the death of an expatriate SAS soldier turned businessman in Vanuatu was due to an accident.
40-year-old David Jolley had allegedly been involved in a brawl at a bar in Vanuatu's capital, Port Vila, the night before his death.
However our correspondent in Vanuatu, Len Garae, says a post-mortem has found Mr Jolley died after falling on a lamp at his home and losing a large amount of blood from a deep wound.
Mr Garae says Mr Jolley was a well-respected member of the Port Vila community.
"He came with a different outlook to business. He arrived in Vanuatu about 10 years ago but then beginning last year he saw the need to rescue a number of businesses and he went ahead and bought three of those businesses, he and his wife of course, bought three of those businesses and turned them around."
