Finnish MP Eemeli Peltonen, only 30 years old, passed away on Tuesday in the Parliament premises.
The news was confirmed by the Parliament's communications office, which announced that Peltonen had passed away and that the parliamentary community shares the pain with his family.
According to the tabloid Iltalehti , it is a suicide committed inside the Parliament building.
The legislature's Security Director, Aaro Toivonen, told Yle that he did not dispute this information.
Helsinki police announced that the emergency call was received at 11:06 a.m. Investigations are being carried out as a "verification of the causes of death," while authorities stressed that there are no suspicions of criminal activity.
Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo, during a brief press conference in Kajaani, where the National Coalition Party parliamentary group is holding its annual summer meeting, held a moment of silence in respect.
"At the same time, we send strength to his family, loved ones and colleagues. This deeply affects us all," he added.
Orpo also announced that the NCP will suspend political discussions for the day in Kajaani due to the incident.
Parliament is currently on summer recess. The fall session is scheduled to begin on September 2.
