Aston “Junior” Coke, the father of 10-year-old Shani Coke, who was raped and murdered in July, has died just weeks after burying his daughter.
Coke, who had been battling colon cancer, died at the Mandeville Hospital early Thursday morning, according to a relative.
His death comes approximately two weeks after Shani’s funeral.
The 10-year-old’s death sparked widespread outrage after her body was discovered in Tyre, Trelawny, following her disappearance while on her way to a nearby shop.
Her killing has continued to draw attention and grief across Jamaica.
