Officials said on Twitter: “The National Institute of Forensic Medicine continues to conduct the necessary medical studies to ascertain the cause of death.

They had been due to perform at the Estereo Picnic festival near Bogota on the night of his death – but have now cancelled the rest of its South American tour.
