Two passengers of a cruise ship found dead inside the ship at Tallinn port in Estonia on Sunday morning, national broadcaster Yle reported quoting police and cruise ship authority.
Estonian police recovered the bodies from separate cabins in the ship named Tallink Silja Europa at 3:00 am and 5:00 am.
Both of the dead were Finnish citizens- one is 25-year old woman, and another is 21-year old man. Police did not find any mark of injury at the bodies.
The bodies were found overnight on the ship while it was anchored at the Tallinn port.
The deceased had spent the night in separate cabins in the ship while it was docked at the Tallinn port from Helsinki port. The cabins were not located close to each other.
Police said that the incidents do not appear to be related and that neither case indicated that there had been any violence involved, said the Yle report.
The bodies were sent to hospital for autopsy to find out the reason behind the deaths.
Tallink Silja communication director Marika Nöjd told Yle that in both cases the bodies were discovered by their fellow passengers.
