Suffolk Police said it was not treating the death, reported on March 23, as suspicious.

The force was called to an address in Union Road, Lowestoft, at around 11:45 local time to reports a man had died suddenly, a spokeswoman said.

A post-mortem examination to establish the cause of death is due to take place, and a file will be passed to the coroner, she added.
