A post-mortem examination is to be carried out later today on the body of a man found in a house near Kilross, Co Tipperary.
Gardaí say the results of the examination will determine the course of the investigation.
The man’s body was removed last night from the house in the isolated townland of Ballycrana, near Kilross and taken to University Hospital Waterford.
The man, who is understood to be from Eastern Europe, was discovered in a downstairs room in the house shortly after 4am yesterday.
It is understood the detached two-storey house, near the Tipperary and Limerick border, was rented by the deceased and a number of others.
The house remains cordoned off for a forensic examination by members of the Garda Technical Bureau.
Gardaí have appealed to anyone with information to contact Tipperary Town Garda Station on 062 80670, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any garda station.
