Diver dies in Finland

[Redshift]

A man born in 1978 (~36yo) has died while diving, apparently due to some sudden illness. Autopsy will be conducted to confirm cause of death and, although without indication of any malfunction, the equipment will also be analyzed.

More from the link sited:
2 divers were manning the boat & 2 were in the water. All were experienced divers. The police have the equipment and the proper authorities will examine/test/etc. it, although at this time no malfunction is suspected [as Redshift noted].
The diver died in the water but it is not known whether the reason was drowning or something else is unknown. The autopsy might tell more.

My own comments:
The Finnish Divers' Federation offices are closed for vacation until 3 August, so we will have to wait for them to post more news. This year they have been incredibly good about compiling the facts and presenting them as a reputable, reliable source.

The equipment testing seems to be standard procedure in all diving deaths, i.e. it indicates nothing as to suspected cause.
