The woman who died at her home in the Auckland suburb of Remuera on Easter Monday was Pauline Hanna.<\/p>\n
Police are still investigating the circumstances around Hanna’s death, which authorities are treating as unexplained. Hanna, 63, was also known as Pauline Polkinghorne, police said.<\/p>\n
“The scene examination remains ongoing at the Upland Rd address and this is expected to continue for some days,” police said last night.<\/p>\n
“Police will provide a further update once we are in a position to do so.”<\/p>\n
Officers remained at Hanna’s property for a fourth day on Thursday examining the scene.<\/p>\n
Hanna worked at Counties Manukau District Health Board as an executive project director, according to LinkedIn. Staff spoken to by the Herald were shocked at the news.<\/p>\n
In 2016, she took a Leadership NZ course and in a mini-profile on the organisation’s website, her skills were listed as project management, process\/continuous improvement and implementation, and change management.<\/p>\n
“I am involved in several community Trusts however building on what I have gained this year, I am investigating how I can turn involvement into a much more significant contribution,” she was quoted as saying in the mini-profile.<\/p>\n
The DHB didn’t respond to a request for comment this week.<\/p>\n
Hanna’s neighbours have been asked by police if they knew the family who lived at her home, if they saw anything unusual, or unusual car movements.<\/p>\n
They have also been reassured that they are safe but were not informed about the exact nature of the investigation.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One resident told the Herald they saw a red car being towed away from the property on Wednesday night, and that a police presence remained overnight at the house.<\/p>\n
They all said a police presence is very unusual for the area.<\/p>\n
On Thursday morning, staff and forensics steadily arrived since 8.30am.<\/p>\n
A post-mortem examination was completed on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Police say they are still considering the results of post-mortem as well as awaiting results from other inquiries.<\/p>\n
