Mum says fatality is 'highly suspicious'

- By Christopher Bucktin

THE death of Prince William's polo pal, killed by a bee sting, has sparked a bitter £2.7billion inheritance row as the family believes his death was "highly suspicious".

Sunjay Kapur, 53, collapsed and died of a heart attack on June 12 while playing polo in Surrey. Reports suggested he swallowed a bee moments before.

The Delhi-born businessman was heir to Sona Comstar, the £2.7bn automotive components empire founded by his father.

A fixture in India’s high society, Kapur was known for his connections to British royalty and the upper echelons of the polo world.
