Detectives who launched a murder investigation following the death of a man at a house have said he suffered a head injury.
Giedrius Cesnulevicius, 39, from Chatham, died days after he was hurt.
The coroner has been informed and the cause of death is not yet known.
Paramedics were called to the terraced property in Westmount Avenue, Chatham, and he was taken to a London hospital where he died two days later.
Four people - a man and woman in their 30s from Chatham, a woman in her 40s and a man in his 30s from Gravesend - were arrested in connection with the death.
Those arrested, all of whom have been released on bail pending further pending inquiries, and the dead man, are known to each other.
It is not believed police, who have made house-to-house calls in the road, are looking for anyone else in connection with the incident which happened at about 8.15pm on Saturday March 16.
After a post mortem examination was held on Monday, March 25, officers made an appeal for anyone who heard or saw anything on the night to come forward.
A team from the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate are following up multiple lines of inquiry.
The four arrested have been released on bail until Monday April 8.
Meanwhile, neighbours living in the quiet residential cul-de-sac have spoken of their shock after hearing of the death.
Faraday Brincovenau. 53, a mother-of-four, has lived in Westmount Avenue for nearly 20 years.
She said: “This has always been a nice road. You don’t expect something shocking like this to happen here.”
Another mum, Ruby Bath, 53, said: “It’s horrible. I shall be getting my CCTV fixed after this.”
A man, who did not want to be named, said he was out at the time and came home to see an ambulance parked opposite his home.
He said: “I don’t know them that well, but the people who live there seemed nice.”
