The wife of a prominent Bradford-born businessman has been found dead in a car.
Nicole Falkingham, whose husband Jonathan Falkingham is the chief executive of property developer Urban Splash, was found on Friday, police have confirmed.
Urban Splash was behind the £100 million regeneration of Lister Mills at Manningham.
Mrs Falkingham, 41, of Allerton, Liverpool, was found in a car in a road in Eastwood, another suburb of the city. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Merseyside Police said her death was being treated as unexplained as they awaited the results of toxicology tests.
When officers arrived at the scene, they went into a nearby house and found a cannabis factory with more than 100 plants, a police spokesman said.
A man, aged 48, and a woman, 49, have been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and the cultivation of cannabis. The pair, who are both from Aigburth, Liverpool, have since been released on police bail.
