WELLINGTON - The bodies of three South Korean women have been found in a house in Christchurch on Wednesday morning. Police said the deaths were not suspicious.
It is not yet clear what killed the three women, but police believe there has been no foul play and they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.
The bodies, of two older women and one teenager, were removed from the house in a suburb of Christchurch around midday.
Post-mortems was conducted on Wednesday and the deaths will be referred to the coroner.
Police said they could not talk about what may had happened, and they also said the names of the dead would not be released until family overseas had been contacted.
Officers who entered the house opened up all the doors and windows.
The large five-bedroom house had just been sold.
