The incident unfolded when two individuals left the hotel room and upon their return, found the door locked. They sought the assistance of the hotel manager, who subsequently opened the room, revealing the deceased on the floor with the television still on.

He was then taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. - BERNAMA
