“Anyone who has yet to speak to us is urged to come forward immediately.

“My team is working to provide answers to the family of the deceased and members of the public who may have valuable information that will assist our investigation.”

Richmond Policing Lead Chief Superintendent Lis Chapple added: “My thoughts are with the man and his family.

“We will do everything we can to support our colleagues in specialist crime as they work to establish what happened here.
