Police investigators have dismissed a foul play in the death of Inoue Masahito, 66, a tourist, whose body was already under the state of decomposition when it was discovered inside his bedroom at Room 5 of LNMP Townhomes along Richtopen Street in the barangay.
Elmer Pineda, attorney-in-fact of LNMP Townhouse, and Marjorie Bundalian, who does household chores for Masahito every Saturdays and Sundays, reported the foul odor emanating from the said apartment unit.
Bundalian told policemen that she even knocked on the apartment's door and repeatedly tried to call the Japanese through his cellular phone but to no avail.
Responding policemen forcibly opened the apartment's door and found Masahito's decomposing body lying face down.
Autopsy conducted on the Japanese's body showed that he died of cardiac arrest.
