Initial inquiries by the security officers at the scene revealed that no one had witnessed the moment the man fell. His body was discovered already lifeless on the ground. The police and investigators then proceeded to the deceased man’s room on the 52nd floor. The room was found in an orderly state, with no signs of a disturbance or a suicide note.

The initial assumption was that the man had accidentally fallen, leading to his untimely death. The relatives did not show any signs of emotional distress over the death. Investigators are now reviewing the building’s security footage and sent the body to the Forensic Institute at the Police Hospital for further examination, following the legal protocol.
