The cause of Shepherd’s death is suspected to have been heart failure.

Shepherd was put into an induced coma after having difficulty breathing. The cause of Shepherd’s death is suspected to have been due to heart failure, North Coast Courier reported.

His daughter, Lara Bellamy, said that because it was still an alleged murder, there was a process that needed to be followed.

No funeral arrangements have been made yet.

“The postmortem still needs to confirm the cause of death. Until then, we cannot make any arrangements,” she said.

Shepherd was beaten with a cane knife and suffered multiple injuries including five broken ribs, a gash to his head and deep cuts. The skin on one of his hands and arm was ripped off.

The Umhlali detective handling the case, Constable Sidusiso Nkwayana, confirmed that the charges against the two men arrested for the crime would be changed to murder once the postmortem was complete.

“We need to know if the injuries was a direct cause of the death. We do not know if he died from heart or respiratory failure. The charges will change only when we receive results from the postmortem,” he said.

"That blood is our blood. This is what it looks like when black terrorists break into your home. He enters your home with the intention to murder you. He's not there for cookies and tea: he wants to kill you, and only 7 percent of all the farm-attackers in South Africa are ever caught. Arm yourselves in every legal way possible'
