A British tourist fell to his death last night from a third floor hotel balcony in Corfu in a suspected suicide while on holiday with his fiancée.

The 46-year-old died just after midnight in the Kanoni region on the south of the island where the couple had been staying for a few days.

Ioannis Aivatidis, Corfu’s medical examiner, told APE-MPE: ‘The side effects of the antidepressants that the 46-year-old was taking will also be examined.’ 

The man’s fiancée told officials that her partner had been taking medication for a psychological issue. 

Criminal activity has been ruled out and police believe that the man killed himself, CNN Greece reported.
