Hide AdDetective Chief Inspector Jaz Khan, of West Yorkshire Police Protective Services Crime, today said: “We have been carrying out extensive enquiries into Harry’s death including a detailed examination of the scene by forensic experts, and there are no obvious suspicious circumstances.
“His death is being treated as unexplained and a file is being prepared for the Coroner so that an inquest can be held in due course."
He said specialist officers were supporting Harry's family, who live in the Bradford area.
Det Chief Insp Khan went on to renew his earlier appeal for information, saying: “While we do now have a clearer picture of his movements up to him arriving back at the house, we would still be interested to hear from anyone who has seen him at the property in the hours before he was found so that information can assist the Coroner.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Leeds District CID via 101, quoting 1317426310.
