He said the initial investigation found that the victim, who was also a farmer, was found lying on the ground near the hospital lobby at 2.25pm.

“The victim is believed to have jumped from the fourth floor of the HTAA building causing injuries to the head, neck, mouth and was pronounced dead at the scene,” he said.

“So far, we believe the deceased jumped from the hospital building based on the broken branches and twigs on his body,” he explained.

“Further investigation found that no criminal element was detected. The victim’s body was then handed over to the HTAA Forensic Department for autopsy,” he added on.
