Proguanil and chloroquine have been detected in the man’s body. Chloroquine (Nivaquine®) and Proguanil (Paludrine®) are used to prevent malaria (malaria prophylaxis). This would mean that the victim must have taken this medicine several hours before his death. It is plausible that the victim was not in the tropics more than four weeks before his death. In addition, it is plausible that the man does not come from a malaria area or has not resided for a longer period of time.
