JAKARTA - Former Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di'Ano was announced dead in the third week of October. About three weeks passed, the cause of death has now been revealed.

The family gave news regarding Paul's health condition before finally dying. The hospital has also issued an autopsy from the musician.

"My fans and friends, we have received permission from Paul's family to let you know the news about the cause of Paul's death, after the autopsy results were received," said an official statement quoted by Loudwire, November 11.

"Her sister, Cheryl and Michelle, confirmed the following: 'Basically she had a torn bag around her heart and blood had been filled in from the main aorta arteries and it had caused the heart to stop.' Paul's death occurred instantly and hopefully without pain. May he rest in peace," the statement continued.

The statement was accompanied by a photo of Di'Ano's friends and family gathering last Thursday for a tribute concert in London.

"By the end of this week, an In Memoriam show was held in Underworld Camera, where many fans, friends, colleagues, and members of Paul's family came. With an extraordinary set of music, his music colleagues say a proper goodbye to their friends."

Di'Ano led Iron Maiden during an important period when they wrote, recorded, and toured behind their first two studio projects, the 1980 Iron Maiden and Killers in 1981.
