Man found dead in his room in Bonamoussadi

Richard Talla, a carpenter by profession was found dead in his room at a place called “Sable” in the Bonamoussadi neighbourhood on March 1, 2015.

According to some family members, the over 40-year-old returned home after parting ways with friends he had been hanging out with, and went to bed. The carpenter who usually wakes up early was not seen around the compound the next morning.

Curious family members went to check on him but found his door still locked from inside his room. The family members and neighbours kept on knocking on his door but had no reply. They were thus forced to break down the door only to find Talla’s lifeless body on the bed.

Family members are still in shock over his death as he did not complain of any form of bad health.

The corpse of the deceased has been deposited in a local hospital mortuary and an investigation has been opened by the 12 District Police to ascertain the actual cause of his death.
