Singapore Police Force confirmed no foul play suspected in singer Zubeen Garg's death investigation, urging public against spreading unverified speculation. The 52-year-old died during a yacht outing while performing at Singapore's North East India Festival last month. Investigations under Singapore's Coroners Act 2010 may take three more months before findings reach the State Coroner, who'll determine if a Coroner's Inquiry is necessary. Singapore police shared autopsy report and preliminary findings with India's High Commission on October 1 upon request. Five arrests made in India include event organizer Shyamkanu Mahanta, manager Siddharth Sharma, suspended APS officer Sandipan Garg (cousin), and two PSOs including Nandeswar Bora.
