A state coroner on Wednesday upheld the Singapore Police Coast Guard’s (PCG) finding that there was no foul play in the death of Indian singer Zubeen Garg and ruled the death “an accidental drowning” near an island of the city state in September last year.

State Coroner Adam Nakhoda stated that the PCG had conducted a comprehensive and thorough investigation in this case and found that Garg’s death was “simply due to an unfortunate and tragic accidental drowning”.
