FURTHER investigations are being taken into the cause of death of a man killed in a road incident in Eastleigh, an inquest heard.

Sagar Bhatti, 23, died on Sunday March 10 on Woodside Avenue after he was in collision with two vehicles.

Two men, aged 26 and 29 from Eastleigh, who were arrested on suspicion of murder following the death have been released from custody under investigation.

The inquest has been opened in Winchester into the death.

Senior coroner Grahame Short said Mr Bhatti, 23, of Avon Green, Chandler’s Ford, was pronounced dead at the scene after police were called at 5.45am and he was initially identified through a photo on his driving licence.

A report from the initial post-mortem conducted at the Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester by pathologist Deborah Cook said a cause of death was awaiting further investigation.

Mr Short adjourned the inquest until September 27.

Police say the men arrested were not in either of the cars involved in the collision and officers are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding his death.

Detective Inspector Lee Macarthur, who is leading the inquiry, said: “If you live in the area and have CCTV, please let us know as you may have captured something which could assist our investigation."
