The body was found after the staff at the German embassy raised concerns because Thomas Jürgen did not show up for work for 2 days, without any information.
Prima facie, the death seems to be due to a heart attack. Thomas Jürgen reportedly already had a previous heart attack. His body has been sent for autopsy. More details are awaited.
