The main opposition Suomen Sosialidemokraattinen Puolue (Social Democratic Party of Finland-SDP) MP elected from Järvenpää died at about 11:00 a.m., said police adding that they did not suspect any crime link to the death.

Police are investigating into the incident to find out the reason behind the death of the MP.
National broadcaster Yle, quoting a social media post of the lawmaker in June said that Peltonen had been suffering from different diseases including kidney complication.
