Mike Batayeh, an actor and comedian most known for portraying Gus’ notorious laundry manager in the television series “Breaking Bad,” died on June 1. His cause of death had previously been listed as a heart attack. In a terrible turn of events, authorities have recently disclosed that he was hanged to death.
Although his family claimed that he had no prior history of heart conditions, Batayeh was discovered dead at his Michigan home on June 1. According to early accounts, the cause of death was listed as a “heart attack.” His family has not yet responded to the most recent events, and the industry has been horrified by the fresh information.
According to the New York Post, the 52-year-old actor was declared dead by “asphyxia hanging” by the Washtenaw County Medical Examiner’s Office.
His followers are now speculating that the actor committed suicide, and they are also doubting the actor’s earlier claims of having had a heart attack. However, the authorities have not yet provided any additional information.
According to sources, a memorial service for Batayeh will be held on June 16 at the Vermeulen-Sajewski Funeral Home in Plymouth, Michigan.
