Toronto police are investigating the suspicious death of a billionaire Canadian pharmaceutical magnate and his wife in their $5.4million home.

Barry Sherman, the founder of Canadian firm Apotex Ince, and his wife Honey, were found dead in the basement of their lavish mansion in an affluent neighborhood.

Two bodies covered in blankets were removed from the home and loaded into an unmarked van on Friday evening.

A realtor agent showing off the house to potential buyers discovered them hanging from rails, side-by-side, next to their indoor swimming pool, reports suggest.

Their deaths have stunned the country, and has prompted an outpouring of grief from prominent businessman and even a tribute from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Sherman, who would have turned 76 next month and was worth $3.2billion, and his wife, were well known for their generosity and gave millions to charity.

'The circumstances of their death appear suspicious and we are treating it that way,' said Constable David Hopkinson.

Homicide detectives later told reporters gathered outside the home that there were no signs of forced entry.

However, sources working close to the investigation told the Toronto Sun that it may have been a murder-suicide.

They believe Honey could have been killed in a different location at the sprawling property on Old Colony Rd.

She was then moved to the spot where she was found with her husband.

Sherman founded privately held Apotex in 1974, growing it by introducing large numbers of low-cost generic drugs that took market share from branded pharmaceuticals. He stepped down as chief executive in 2012 but remained executive chairman.

Forbes has estimated Sherman's fortune at $3.2 billion.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Two bodies hanging side by side … suspicious? Now whatever possessed the cops to come to such a conclusion?

Apparently 3.2 billion will not buy happiness either.
