Greater Manchester Police are not treating his death as suspicious, but believe that it may have been drug related.

Last month, Wigan Magistrates court heard how Bennett had been spotted rubbing himself against the post box with his trousers down, before raising his arms in a star position, shouting ‘wow’.

He pleaded guilty to two charges of indecent exposure as well as using threatening and abusive words and abusive behaviour.

He was also ordered to sign the sex offenders’ register and pay £260 in victim compensation and court costs.

Paying tribute, an acquaintance of Mr Bennett: ‘He had his troubles but he wasn’t a bad lad’.
