Police are yet to confirm the blogger died after being electrocuted in the shower and Inspector Bangkit Dananjaya, from the South Denpasar Police Criminal Investigation Unit in Bali, said: "We suspect Cesillia died from electric shock. The body has been evacuated to Sanglah Hospital."

They are awaiting a post mortem to determine the cause of death.
