Indonesia's Vice-President Gibran Rakabuming Raka resigned, according to Reuters and Bloomberg.

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has accepted his resignation, Bloomberg reported, citing people with knowledge of the matter.

Gibran had earlier expressed his intention to resign during a meeting with Prabowo on Nov. 10.

This was shared during a press conference by Indonesian State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi, who said the decision was in response to developments surrounding recent court rulings, The Jakarta Post reported.

On Oct. 30, the Indonesian Supreme Court invalidated the high-school equivalency certificate submitted by Gibran to register for the 2024 presidential election.

The ruling intensified calls for Gibran to step down.

A day ago, Prasetyo denied reports that Prabowo had rejected Gibran's intention to step down.

Instead, Prabowo offered advice during their meeting, he said.

Gibran also "requested an opportunity to prove the validity" of his educational certificates through the State Administrative Court.

Who is Gibran and why was his candidacy controversial?

Gibran, 39, is the eldest son of Joko Widodo (also known as Jokowi), who served as Indonesia's president from 2014 to 2024.

Before becoming vice-president, Gibran served as mayor of Surakarta, also known as Solo, in Central Java.

He was 36 when he was selected as Prabowo's running mate for the 2024 presidential election.

At the time, Indonesia required presidential and vice-presidential candidates to be at least 40 years old.

However, on Oct. 16, 2023, the Constitutional Court introduced an exception allowing candidates under 40 to run if they had previously held or were holding elected public office.

As Gibran was then the elected mayor of Surakarta, the ruling made him eligible to contest the election.

The decision attracted controversy because the court's then-chief justice, Anwar Usman, was Gibran's uncle and Jokowi's brother-in-law.

Anwar participated in the ruling, which was decided by a 5–4 majority.

He was later removed as chief justice in November 2023 after the Constitutional Court's ethics council found him guilty of serious ethical violations over his involvement in the ruling.

Why are his educational qualifications questioned?

As early as 2023, when Gibran was still campaigning for vice president, his educational qualifications had been under scrutiny.

According to the elections records, he attended Orchid Park Secondary School in Singapore from 2002 to 2004, then continued his studies at UTS Insearch, a college affiliated with the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) in Australia.

He later received an advanced diploma at the Management Development Institute of Singapore (MDIS) as a full-time student, which the school confirmed in October 2025.

Through a partnership between MDIS and the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom, he obtained a a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Marketing from the University.

The controversy around Gibran's education started when an online commentator questioned Gibran’s degree, questioning how he had attained a British degree while studying in Singapore.

The dispute later grew to focus on whether he completed senior high school or an equivalent level, which is legally a requirement for presidential and vice-presidential candidates in Indonesia.

In September 2026, a petition was filed urging ​the court arguing that Gibran's ⁠overseas education credentials did not satisfy Indonesian eligibility requirements for the vice presidency, and thus his position should be annulled.

What did the courts decide?

Two separate court rulings in October 2026 raised further questions about Gibran's eligibility to serve as vice-president.

Constitutional Court ruling on Oct. 6, 2026

On Oct. 6, 2026, Indonesia's Constitutional Court said it "did not find convincing evidence" that Gibran had a foreign certificate proving he had completed senior high school or an equivalent qualification.

However, the court dismissed the petition seeking to remove him from office, finding that the petitioners lacked legal standing.

It also explained that the case could no longer be treated as a dispute over the 2024 presidential election results, as Gibran had already been sworn in as vice-president.

Supreme Court ruling on Oct. 30, 2026

Gibran has repeatedly defended his educational qualifications.

"If I hadn't graduated from high school, how could I have gone to university? I even completed my Bachelor's degree in Singapore," he said on Oct. 7, 2026, a day after the Constitutional Court's decision.

In a separate case, the Jakarta State Administrative Court rejected a lawsuit challenging Gibran's high-school equivalency certificate on May 21, 2026. Its decision was upheld by the Jakarta State Administrative High Court on Aug. 12, 2026.

However, on Oct. 30, 2026, Indonesia's Supreme Court overturned both decisions and declared the certificate invalid.

Gibran had submitted the certificate when registering for the 2024 presidential election.

The ruling prompted renewed calls for his resignation, although it did not automatically remove him from office.

Why did Gibran resign?

Gibran's resignation comes amid mounting pressure over his educational qualifications and growing calls for his impeachment.

According to The Straits Times, Indonesian lawmakers began gathering signatures on Nov. 7, 2026, for a motion that could lead to impeachment proceedings.

Protests calling for his resignation or removal have also taken place across Indonesia since October 2026, including outside Parliament in Jakarta on Nov. 10, 2026.

These developments come amid reported tensions between Prabowo and Gibran's father, former president Joko Widodo.

According to The Jakarta Post, their relationship has been strained following cabinet reshuffles since September 2025 that removed or reassigned several of Jokowi's allies.

Most recently, Prabowo's chief of staff Listyo Sigit Prabowo (no relation), known to be close to Widodo, was dismissed and arrested for allegedly wiretapping the president.

After expressing his intention to resign, Gibran said he did not want the controversy surrounding his educational qualifications to drag on.

He also said he would continue defending his credentials through legal proceedings.

Impeachment petition

On Nov. 11, more than 100 Indonesian lawmakers have signed a petition challenging Gibran's eligibility to remain in office, potentially paving the way for impeachment proceedings, according to Reuters.

The petition, signed by lawmakers from several political parties, follows court rulings that found problems with the education documents Gibran used to qualify for the 2024 presidential election.

What's next?

With Gibran's resignation, Indonesia must elect a new vice-president to serve the remainder of the presidential term, which ends in 2029.

Under Indonesia's Constitution, the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) must convene within 60 days of the vice-presidency becoming vacant, to elect a replacement from two candidates nominated by President Prabowo.

This means Indonesians will not vote directly for their new vice-president.

More than 100 Indonesian lawmakers have signed a petition challenging Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka's eligibility to remain in office, potentially paving the way for impeachment proceedings, according to Reuters.

The petition, signed by lawmakers from several political parties, follows court rulings that found problems with the education documents Gibran used to qualify for the 2024 presidential election.

PKS (Partai Keadilan Sejahtera) lawmaker Muhammad Kholid confirmed that more than 100 parliamentarians had signed the petition.

Kholid said the petition argued that Gibran "no longer meets the requirements as VP candidate" following the court rulings.

He said the petition would be handed to the House speaker, potentially setting in motion a parliamentary process that could result in Gibran's impeachment.

Supreme Court annuls Gibran's education certificate

Indonesian election rules require vice-presidential candidates to have completed senior high school or an equivalent qualification.

Gibran, who studied overseas, used an education-equivalency certificate to meet this requirement when he contested the 2024 presidential election alongside Prabowo Subianto, now Indonesia's president.

However, on Oct. 30, 2026, the Supreme Court annulled the certificate and ordered the education ministry to withdraw it.

PDI-P's 110 lawmakers agree to pursue parliamentary motion

Separately, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) has agreed to pursue a parliamentary motion over the controversy surrounding Gibran's educational qualifications.

PDI-P faction leader Utut Adianto announced the unanimous decision following a closed-door meeting on Nov. 11, 2026, according to CNN Indonesia.

He added that all 110 members of the party's parliamentary faction could sign the motion if necessary.

The PDI-P announcement comes as more than 100 lawmakers from several political parties have signed a petition challenging Gibran's eligibility, according to Reuters.

Political uncertainty surrounding Gibran

The developments come amid reported tensions between President Prabowo Subianto and Gibran's father, former president Joko Widodo, also known as Jokowi, according to Reuters.

Gibran had expressed an intention to resign during a meeting with Prabowo on Nov. 10, 2026.

While Prabowo did not outright reject his resignation offer, he, according to the President's spokesperson, offered advice to Gibran in return.

"Mr. President is like a father to me. He has given me a great deal of advice and input regarding the current developments," Gibran told reporters at the Vice Presidential Palace in Jakarta on Tuesday, November 10, according to Tempo.

Gibran said one of Prabowo's suggestions was to continue pursuing the matter through the State Administrative Court (PTUN), submitting all his academic records from elementary school through his undergraduate studies.

Gibran has not formally resigned or been impeached.

A total of 157 non-compliant devices were impounded in Singapore in October 2026 following a series of enforcement actions taken by the authorities.

The Land Transport Authority said in a social media post on Nov. 10 that a 16-day operation targeted non-compliant active mobility devices parked at public housing estates and along corridors, as part of efforts to address fire safety risks.

In addition, a three-day blitz on errant riding on pedestrian overhead bridges was also carried out.

In total, 585 active mobility offences were spotted, LTA added.

LTA said it would continue to take firm action against errant users and retailers.

The public can report errant users online.

Easties can rejoice.

The Thomson-East Coast Line Stage 5 (TEL5) and the Downtown Line 3 Extension (DTL3e), the final phase of both lines, will be completed and opened to the public on Dec. 26, 2026.

This comprises three stations, Bedok South, Sungei Bedok and Xilin.

Bedok South and Xilin sit on the TEL and DTL respectively, while Sungei Bedok is an interchange that serves both lines.

Bedok South

Bedok South station, as its name suggests, serves residents in the Bedok South and Upper East Coast regions.

Nearby landmarks include Siglap Community Club, Temasek Secondary School, and the Kew Gardens residential estate.

The five entrances of the station are colour-coded, which the Land Transport Authority (LTA) stated is intended to aid in wayfinding.

Passengers can refer to entrances easily by their colour, even if they cannot recall the number.

For instance, Entrance 4 is yellow, while Entrance 3 is blue.

The station incorporates glass panels at the concourse level that provide views towards the platform.

Artworks adorning the walls on the station pay homage to landmarks around the station, as well as to traditional hand-painted cinema posters from the old days.

Similar to other TEL4 stations, such as Marine Parade and Tanjong Katong, the station is equipped with hybrid cooling fans at the platform level, which in conjunction with the air-conditioning, helps to improve air circulation and comfort.

210 sheltered bicycle parking lots are also provided across its five entrances.

Bus stops and taxi stands are located conveniently nearby each entrance.

Sungei Bedok

Sungei Bedok serves as an interchange between the TEL and DTL, improving connectivity in the East region.

It is located next to Bedok Food Centre and Bedok Camp.

LTA stated that the design of the station was informed by the surrounding nature, with the colour scheme intended to reference the land, the sky, and the ocean.

A first for train stations in Singapore, it features a stacked platform configuration, with the DTL platform directly under the TEL platform.

This means that commuters can transfer very simply between the two lines via escalators.

This is in contrast to stations such as City Hall, which feature stacked platforms but have multiple lines on the same platform.

The station will also feature an underground bicycle parking facility with 298 bicycle parking lots, similar to Marine Parade, Marine Terrace, and Bayshore stations.

To make it easier for cyclists to access the parking facility, the station is equipped with a wider lift to accommodate bicycles and a staircase with a bicycle ramp.

The steps on the staircase are also shorter to allow cyclists a smoother experience while transporting their bikes on the ramp.

Personal mobility aids or devices (PMAs/PMDs) will not be allowed to be parked at the bicycle parking facility. Instead, five parking lots for PMAs and PMDs will be provided at Entrance 3.

There are also toilets located within the paid area beyond the gantry, allowing commuters to use toilet facilities without having to tap out of the gantry.

Xilin

Xilin station extends the DTL to serve the Changi Business Park and Expo areas.

The station is also located near Dusit Thani Laguna Singapore and the East Coast Integrated Depot.

The artwork around the platform takes the form of golden metal sheets, which, according to LTA, was inspired by sampan sails and ocean waves.

It serves as a nod to the former coastal area.

Just like Bedok South station, Xilin station will contain sheltered bicycle lots, bus stops, and taxi stands near each entrance to improve last-mile connectivity.

Michael Ong, deputy director of architecture with LTA, said that the team paid close attention to commuter feedback to provide "easier access, greater comfort, and better first- and last-mile connectivity".

"Together, these stations will give commuters more options and make everyday journeys more seamless."

A security officer was filmed in a tug-of-war with a boy over a bicycle inside E!Hub at Downtown East in Pasir Ris.

The incident took place at around 5:40pm on Nov. 5, according to NTUC Club, which manages the mall.

Two videos of the incident are circulating on TikTok.

What the videos show

In one video, a security guard in a reflective vest and a boy in a dark green shirt were seen struggling for control of the bicycle, with neither letting go.

At one point, the guard was spun around as the boy held tightly onto the bicycle.

8world reported that it was a fixed-gear bicycle, colloquially known as a fixie.

Fixed-gear bicycles generally do not have handbrakes.

Instead, they rely on the rider's pedal resistance to stop.

In a second video, another man in white joined in and was seen speaking to both the guard and the boy.

He was later seen holding onto the seat of the bicycle as the struggle continued.

Police contacted

In a statement to Mothership, NTUC Club said its security officer saw two cyclists performing stunts while riding inside the mall at about 5:40pm on Nov. 5.

The officer asked them to move their bicycles to the designated bicycle parking area, but they did not comply.

Because the repeated stunt-riding posed a danger to mall visitors, the officer held on to one of the bicycles.

The security team then brought the cyclists to its security office and contacted the police, who attended to the matter.

NTUC Club thanked the member of the public who stepped in to help the officer.

It said the safety of its guests and staff is its top priority, and reminded visitors not to ride bicycles within the mall and to park them at designated bicycle parking areas.

Mothership understands the police have taken no further action.

A 30-year-old man who crashed into two elderly pedestrians after using Kpods, killing one of them, was sentenced to six years, nine months and 15 weeks' jail on Nov. 11.

He will also be disqualified from driving for 14 years upon his release.

Lim Jinsheng pleaded guilty to seven charges, including reckless driving causing death, driving under the influence of drugs, and possessing etomidate.

Described to be in a "zombie" state

According to court documents seen by Mothership, Lim was driving a rental car along the Bukit Timah Expressway on Nov. 8, 2025 when a witness noticed him weaving left and right within his lane.

A passenger in the witness' car also said Lim appeared to be nodding his head back and forth.

The witness continued to follow Lim’s vehicle, as they were travelling in the same direction.

At about 2:51pm, Lim stopped at a T-junction along Teck Whye Lane towards Choa Chu Kang Road, though the path ahead was clear.

In that moment, two women, aged 83 and 84, were about to cross the road.

Lim's car then suddenly moved towards them, mounted the kerb and hit them, causing both to fall.

The car was still accelerating, with its wheels spinning, after the collision.

When the witness got out of his car and asked Lim to step out, Lim was unresponsive.

Passers-by subsequently called the police.

One passer-by described Lim as being in a "zombie" state and holding a vape device.

Both victims were taken to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, where the 83-year-old woman subsequently succumbed to her injuries and died.

She suffered multiple lacerations, bruises and abrasions on her head, torso and limbs.

Meanwhile, the 84-year-old fractured her left hip and left wrist.

Lim was arrested that day, and tests later showed that his blood contained etomidate.

He claimed he had blacked out after reaching for his water bottle, and recalled "seeing stars" and hearing ringing in his ears.

Other incidents

Earlier on Jul. 5, 2025, Lim’s car also mounted a kerb and hit a lamp post and a directional sign along Yishun Avenue 8.

He told the police he was tired and lost concentration while driving, and was not arrested that day.

Damage to the government property was estimated at S$1,950.

Less than two weeks later, on Jul. 16, 2025, Lim rear-ended a car along the Central Expressway at about 11pm.

The 41-year-old driver was given three days' medical leave as his head was hurting after the accident.

Lim also drove under the influence of etomidate and hit hit a traffic light pole and signage at the junction of Bedok North Avenue 3 and Bedok North Road in August that same year.

Police later found two Kpods in his shorts pocket and another 38 in his bag, and arrested Lim for driving under the influence of drugs.

Lim claimed he had blacked out from low blood sugar, but paramedics found his levels were normal.

A blood test later confirmed that his blood contained etomidate.

Sentencing submissions

The prosecution sought a jail term of between six and seven years, nine to 13 months, and seven to nine weeks, as well as a 12 to 14-year driving ban.

It said Lim had been given enough chances to change his ways, but continued to commit traffic offences on at least four separate occasions in five months, "with only sheer luck ensuring that his first three incidents of careless driving did not cause any serious harm".

"Tragically, on his final occasion of offending, his recklessness took the life of an innocent," the prosecution said, according to court documents.

According to The Straits Times, Lim’s lawyer said the sentence sought was fair.

In court, an apology written by Lim was read out.

"This accident happened because I did things without realising the grave consequences and no words will ever describe how sorry and guilty I am," he wrote.

Hoping to secure Singapore work passes, a father-son duo from China sold their family car and took bank loans to invest S$18,000 in Singapore businesses run by a 35-year-old Malaysian.

However, the investment turned bad and the work pass applications were unsuccessful.

They then flew from China to Singapore, located the 35-year-old and assaulted him in a mall carpark.

They each got 10 weeks' jail after pleading guilty to the assault, The Straits Times reported.

Sought work passes

According to court documents, in April 2026, 25-year-old Gao Zhenhan and his 50-year-old father, Gao Yong, had hoped to open a shop in Singapore.

The Gaos reside in China.

They reached out to a Singaporean contact to apply for the necessary work passes. The contact then introduced the son to the victim, a 35-year-old Malaysian national.

He is an investor in various food businesses in Singapore.

The contact informed the son that the 35-year-old was looking for investors into his Singapore businesses.

Sold family car and took loans to invest S$18,000

In May 2026, the son and the victim began corresponding with each other over WeChat about investing in one of the victim's ventures.

During the discussions, the victim sent his personal particulars, including his identification number and photographs of himself, to the son.

The victim invited the son to invest in one of his beverage shops located in Kent Ridge Medical Centre. In order to raise capital, the Gaos sold their family car and took on bank loans.

They then invested S$18,000.

Work permit applications were unsuccessful

Later, the victim informed the Gaos that he had applied for the work permits, but the applications were unsuccesful.

The Gaos then requested for their investment to be refunded, but the victim did not do so.

Sometime before Oct. 14, 2026, the Gaos decided to fly to Singapore to confront the victim.

Located victim at mall food court

On Oct. 14, at about 2pm, they arrived in Singapore. They proceeded to the Kent Ridge Medical Centre shop to look for the victim.

Unable to locate him, the two spent the night rough sleeping in the vicinity. They had not booked an accommodation for their time in Singapore.

The next morning on Oct. 15, they again attempted to look for the victim at the shop but were unsuccessful.

They then took a train to VivoCity to have a meal. At the mall, the Gaos noticed the victim working at a stall in a food court at the mall, seemingly by coincidence.

They approached the victim but as they did so, the victim walked towards his car in the carpark. The Gaos followed him.

The assault

As the victim arrived at his car, the father ran up towards him and swung his hand towards the victim's head. He then grabbed the victim around his upper body and pushed him inside his car into the passenger seat.

The father pressed the victim against the seat to prevent him from escaping, with his son joining in afterwards.

With the victim restrained, the Gaos confronted him about their investment. This went on for about one-and-a-half minutes.

The Gaos then punched the victim numerous times.

The father later tied the victim's neck to the headrest of the seat using a long rope. They then resumed punching the victim.

The assault was captured by CCTV cameras in the carpark.

The Gaos demanded the victim repay about 200,000 yuan (about S$38,300).

The victim refused and proposed S$5,000 instead, but was rejected by the father. The victim offered S$10,000, but was again rejected.

Arrested

Two security officers later approached the car and knocked on the door. They later called the police and alerted them about the assault.

The Gaos were arrested soon after.

The victim sustained abrasions on his neck and superficial injuries on his face, neck and shoulders. He also felt pain where he was punched.

They were each charged for voluntarily causing hurt, which is punishable with imprisonment of up to three years, a fine of up to S$5,000, or both.

The prosecution sought eight to 10 weeks' jail for the son, and 12 to 14 weeks for the father.

The prosecution argued that it was the father who initiated the assault, thereby placing his culpability above that of his son.

Taiwan has revoked the entry permit of Alice Huang, a Chinese woman accused of spying on Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang, barring her from re-entering the island.

Taiwan's interior minister Liu Shyh-fang confirmed the decision, according to Agence France-Presse (AFP).

Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based data centre company Megaspeed, is suspected by U.S. officials of working for Chinese intelligence.

She was also reportedly involved in an affair with the Nvidia CEO, who has acknowledged having an extramarital relationship.

Beijing has denied the espionage allegations.

Entered Taiwan using Hong Kong passport

Taiwan's National Immigration Agency director-general Lin Horng-en confirmed that Alice Huang had entered the island using a Hong Kong passport and the authorities have records of her visits.

Huang is currently overseas, Liu told lawmakers during a parliamentary session.

According to TVBS News, Taiwanese lawmaker Huang Jie questioned how Alice Huang had been allowed to enter Taiwan for business purposes.

Huang Jie noted that Alice Huang had visited Taiwan in June 2024 and May 2025, raising concerns about potential national security loopholes that could allow Chinese spies to enter the island under the guise of business visits.

In response, Liu said the authorities would review procedures, including pre-entry screening, checks during visits and measures taken afterwards.

She added that Taiwan's interior ministry and immigration authorities would cooperate with national security agencies if further investigations were necessary, according to TVBS News.

Alleged links to Nvidia CEO

Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, previously held a senior position at Singapore-based Megaspeed.

According to AFP, U.S. officials suspect she works for Chinese intelligence.

She was also reportedly involved in an affair with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who has acknowledged having an extramarital relationship.

Taiwan's national security agencies are investigating the matter, Liu said.

A former site manager at 800 Super Waste Management has been sentenced to 49 days' imprisonment after he admitted to receiving S$18,000 in kickbacks from five migrant workers to secure their continued employment.

Koh Kim Sia was convicted under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act (EFMA), according to a Ministry of Manpower (MOM) press release on Wednesday (Nov. 11).

He faced 24 charges under the Act and pleaded guilty to five counts involving the five workers, with the remaining 19 charges taken into consideration during sentencing.

According to MOM, Koh’s role at 800 Super Waste Management included recruiting and managing conservancy workers who performed estate cleaning and maintenance services for town councils, as well as handling the application and renewal of their work permits.

Between June and July 2021, Koh demanded payments ranging from S$2,000 to S$4,000 from each worker as a condition to keep their jobs, collecting a total of S$18,000.

In an advisory issued following the conviction, MOM stressed that demanding or receiving kickbacks from migrant workers is a serious offence.

The ministry reaffirmed its stance against individuals exploiting vulnerable workers for financial gain, noting that offenders under the EFMA face fines of up to S$30,000, jail terms of up to two years, or both per charge.

MOM urged migrant workers who suspect they are being solicited for kickbacks to reach out for assistance via the MOM hotline (6438 5122) or the Migrant Workers' Centre (6536 2692).

Reports on suspicious employment practices can also be submitted confidentially through MOM’s online infringement reporting service.

An 81-year-old elderly woman who lived alone was found dead in her Yishun flat on Nov. 10.

Her remains were discovered after neighbours noticed a foul smell along the corridor.

Family moved out, husband passed years ago

When reporters from Shin Min Daily News visited the second-floor unit at Block 343 Yishun Avenue 11, a neighbour, surnamed Wu (transliteration), shared that the deceased was known to them as Brenda (transliteration).

According to Wu, Brenda used to live with her family back in the days.

However, her husband passed on years ago.

Meanwhile, her two sons moved out after starting families of their own.

"The sons rarely visit. Usually only during Chinese New Year. Her grandson would visit occasionally. Apart from that, an older man, possibly her brother, would bring her food from time to time," Wu shared.

Wu added that the deceased, who used to be a teacher and had taught tuition classes at home, kept to herself.

"I've been neighbours with her for over 30 years. My late mother and her used to have a good relationship," Wu said.

"She doesn't interact much with neighbours, but we would greet each other," he added.

Neighbours called police after smell

Wu's wife shared that the deceased would usually leave her main door ajar from morning till evening.

However, from Friday, she noticed that the main door remained closed while the windows were left open.

Wu's wife grew worried because there did not appear to movement inside the house.

She initially assumed that the deceased had gone on a holiday, but later noticed a smell.

By Nov. 10 morning, the smell had grown so strong that they needed to wear masks.

This led her to believe that someone had passed in the house, which prompted her to get Wu to call the police.

"Only after the police arrived and investigated that I confirmed she had passed away," Wu's wife commented.

"This saddens me. After all, we've been neighbours for so long," she added.

Responding to Mothership's queries, the Singapore Police Force said that they received calls for assistance at 4:50pm on Nov. 10.

The 81-year-old woman was found lying motionless in the unit.

She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Based on preliminary investigations, the police do not suspect foul play.

Investigations are ongoing.
