51-year-old Catholic priest was found dead in a well in the premises of his church in Kottayam, Kerala, on Monday as the Archdiocese he belonged to described it as an ‘unnatural death.
While police said they suspected it to be a case of suicide, the Archdiocese of the Syro-Malabar Church said the priest had hypertension and was under stress after some people were injured in a fire in the church compound a few days ago. The body of Fr George Ettuparayil, who was reported missing since Sunday, was fished out from the well by fire service personnel and divers.
