The investigation into the death of Australian cricket legend Shane Warne has taken a shocking turn, with reports hinting at a possible cover-up.
The Daily Mail report revealed that an item was removed from Warne’s villa in Thailand where his body was discovered.
According to the report, a senior police officer at the scene was instructed to remove a bottle of Kamagra, a drug used to treat erectile dysfunction.
The banned performance-enhancing drugs raised eyebrows about the cause of his death.
The officer, who spoke anonymously, stated that higher officials directed him to confiscate the pills. He also suggested that Australian authorities might have been involved in suppressing information related to Warne’s death.
“It was a bottle, but we don’t know how much he took. There was also a puddle of vomit and blood at the scene, but we cleared the Kamagra as instructed,” he said.
The officer explained that the situation was highly sensitive, suggesting that influential figures may have interfered to avoid negative publicity about the cricket icon.
“These orders came from up high,” he said. “I believe senior Australian officials were involved because they didn’t want their national hero’s death to end in this way, ” the officer concluded.
It is important to note that Shane Warne, the Australian cricket legend and great leg-spinner, passed away on March 4, 2022, at the age of 52 in Thailand.
Following his death, a report by Fox Cricket stated that Warne’s management issued a brief statement saying he passed away from an apparent heart attack on Friday in Koh Samui, Thailand.
“Shane Warne was at his villa and was unresponsive, and despite all efforts by medical personnel, they were unable to save him,” the statement said.
The management also mentioned that further details would be released, but the family had requested privacy.
