Some new revelations have been reported in Shane Warne’s death as a Thai police officer has revealed that there was Kamagra, an Indian drug to treat erectile dysfunction, found at the scene that could have possibly caused the death of the legendary leg spinner from Australia.

The demise of Shane Warne on March 4, 2022 shocked the cricketing world. It was reported that the former 1999 World Cup winner had died of a heart attack. But recently a police officer has claimed that a cover-up was done by senior officers. According to the official, this was done to avoid tarnishing his image.

“We were ordered by our seniors to get rid of the bottle. These orders were coming from up high, and I think senior officials from Australia were also involved because they did not want their national figure to have an ending like this, So, the official report came out as that he suffered a heart attack and no other details as to what could have caused it.

"No one will come out to confirm the Kamagra because it remains a sensitive subject. There were lots of powerful invisible hands behind all this. 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 we were told to,” the police officer said to The Daily Mail.
