The exact cause of Shane Warne's death in Thailand on Friday is not known yet, but police have reportedly found "blood stains" on the floor of the legendary Australian cricketer's room and on bath towels.
The 52-year-old legendary cricketer was declared brought dead by doctors at the Thai International Hospital on Friday night. Earlier, his friends had given him CPR in a luxury villa in Koh Samui, Thailand. New images have emerged from the lodge room in Thailand the place Shane Warne died on Friday night.
Meanwhile Warne’s body has been transported to the Thai mainland to undergo an autopsy, “despite his family’s request to expedite the return to Australia," the report said.
A report in fox.com.au on Sunday quoting Weekend Today said that the spin wizard had “just finished two-week health kick" before heart attack. “Shane Warne had just finished a ridiculous diet before his death, the cricket legend’s manager has revealed," said the report.
Warne along with his friends had reportedly travelled to the popular island of Koh Samui, situated in the Gulf of Thailand.
As per the local police information, one of Warne's friends found the Aussie legend unresponsive around 5pm.
The group commenced CPR on Warne while waiting for an ambulance.
Warne's management later released a brief statement to confirm his death.
“(Manager) James Erksine said Warne was essentially consuming only fluids for 14 days — a diet he has undertaken before — shortly before suffering a suspected heart attack in Thailand," the report said.
“I didn’t know about that (Warne’s heart issue). I did know from Helen, his secretary, that he’d had a bit of a chest pain and also was sweating last week but I only found that later on after he’d died. I didn’t know that at the time," Erskine said on Weekend Today.
“He did go on these ridiculous sorts of diets and he just finished one, where he basically only ate fluids for 14 days and he’d done this three or four times. It was a bit… all or nothing. It was either white buns with butter and lasagne stuffed in the middle or he would be having black and green juices.
“I don’t know, he obviously smoked most of his life. I don’t know, I think it was just a massive heart attack. That’s what I think’s happened."
Day before he passed away, Warne had posted a shirt-less picture of him on Instagram and wrote, “Operation shred has started (10 days in) & the goal by July is to get back to this shape from a few years ago! Let’s go. #healthy #fitness #feelgood."
