Police are investigating the death of a software engineer from Kerala who was found dead in a private lodge in Chennai’s Choolaimedu area, with preliminary suspicion pointing to suffocation caused by bug repellent fumes.
The deceased has been identified as Sree Das Sathyadasan, a native of Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, who was employed with a private multinational company in Chennai. He had been staying at a lodge on First Street, Choolaimedu, and was sharing the room with another man, Maheswara Rao.
