A man found dead at a house in Taumarunui on Wednesday afternoon (11 November) has been named as 45-year-old Moses Moi Akarana.

Emergency services were called to a house in Ngatai Street, Taumarunui around 4.15pm.

It is too early to say whether or not the death is suspicious. A scene examination is being carried out as a precaution and a post mortem is being held later today.

Mr Akarana was fairly transient but in the last couple of weeks had been staying in Auckland and Taumarunui.
