A man had previously been arrested on suspicion on murder but has now been released without charge following a post-mortem examination

Detectives investigating the death of a 70-year-old woman in Dagenham have now said she is likely to have died of natural causes.

The woman was found dead at the property in Boulton Road on Sunday (14th).

A post-mortem examination carried out yesterday (Tuesday 16th) provisionally found that the death was a result of natural causes.

A 75-year-old man who had been arrested at the property has since been released without charge and is no longer under suspicion.

Officers say they will continue to carry out enquiries before passing a file to the coroner.
