Washington, (ANI): According to an independent autopsy conducted on Kung Fu star david carradine"s body, the actor did not commit suicide.

"On the basis of the information we currently have, coupled with the autopsy findings, Carradine's death does not appear to be a suicide," Dr. Michael Baden, who performed the autopsy, told FOXNews.com. Baden confirmed that the final results of the cause of death would be available within a week or two.

"In any death, before arriving at a final cause, one has to gather not only the autopsy results, but also the findings at the scene of the death, the crime lab information and the toxicology results. In this situation, some of those investigations have not been completed yet," Baden said. "But the information we now have does rule out a suicide," he added.

Carradine was found dead a week ago, hanging in a closet of a Bangkok hotel room.
