Hi all,

Hope you guys could give some advice on my situation here:
1. Tenant burn himself in my apartment he's renting, got sent to hospital, dies in hospital a couple days back (or so I heard since my apartment management only called me to inform on this incident and they also all blur on this case)
2. I've peek into my apartment and the damage is minimal (as in only the floor got burnt, furniture and the tenant possessions seems ok, front gate and door damaged as bomba broke them to get to that guy)
3. Today is already been almost a week since the incident, and so far I've been calling the management for updates yet they still is in a blur (I live quite far away from this apartment)
Thus my questions are:
1. Do I need to do anything on the police side (like reporting that I'm the apartment owner)?
2. I could not reach his next of kin, so I couldn't discuss with them on this issue too. How do I proceed, like when should I clear the apartment to rent out again?
3. Even if I do manage to reach his next of kin, I might only ask them to clear his belongings and return his rental deposits. Is there a proper procedure to do this?
4. If there anything else which I missed out, especially legal wise, please advice as so far I am clueless as on how to handle this situation.

Appreciate your advise.

Yes. You need to do report to cover yourself. If anything, you need to clear yourself first

2. I could not reach his next of kin, so I couldn't discuss with them on this issue too. How do I proceed, like when should I clear the apartment to rent out again?
Just give his ID to police. Let them do their job

3. Even if I do manage to reach his next of kin, I might only ask them to clear his belongings and return his rental deposits. Is there a proper procedure to do this?
Rental deposit i think no need. In fact he breached the contract what because no give early notice. Just ask them to collect his belongings

4. If there anything else which I missed out, especially legal wise, please advice as so far I am clueless as on how to handle this situation.
Not sure also. Wait for other experts come in and advise
