Overview

• Byron Haddow, 23, was found unconscious in a private villa plunge pool in Bali on May 26, with Indonesian authorities recording drowning as the cause of death.
• During a second autopsy in Queensland after repatriation about four weeks later, his parents learned his heart had been removed in Bali.
• The family says they paid roughly $700 to have the heart returned and received it months after his funeral and burial.
• A Balinese coroner said they could not determine whether the death was an accident, suicide or homicide, and 9News reports a local autopsy report remains pending.
• Reports say the case was not reported to police for four days and the scene was contaminated before officers arrived, while the family disputes the drowning finding as their opinion and DFAT has been asked for comment.
