A man was found dead near an Av­o­ca­do tree at Bourg Mu­la­tresse ear­ly on Tues­day morn­ing.

Al­though an au­top­sy is yet to be con­duct­ed to de­ter­mine the cause of death, po­lice of­fi­cers who vis­it­ed the scene sus­pect that the man may have fall­en to his death af­ter climb­ing the tree.

Po­lice said vil­lagers found the body of Sal­im Ay­ers near an av­o­ca­do tree at Riv­er Road, Up­per Grand Cu­ru­caye, Bourg Mu­la­tresse at about 6 am.

They called the po­lice, who went to the scene along with a dis­trict med­ical of­fi­cer who pro­nounced Ay­ers dead.

An au­top­sy is sched­uled to be done on Fri­day at the Foren­sic Sci­ence Cen­tre.

Po­lice said there were no marks of vi­o­lence on the body.
