THE natural father of slain child Kiesha Weippeart has been found dead in his Sydney home.



Six-year-old Kiesha's remains were found in a bush grave in April 2011, after she went missing from her Mount Druitt home the previous August.


The body of 29-year-old Chris Weippeart was found in his Tregear home in Sydney's west this morning.


A police official said there were no suspicious circumstances but investigations were under way.


Kiesha's mother Kristi Abrahams is accused of her murder and is yet to stand trial.


Abrahams' partner and Kiesha's stepfather, Robert Smith, 32, pleaded guilty last December to unlawfully killing Kiesha on or about July 13 last year at Mt Druitt.


Abrahams, who was not required to enter a plea when she appeared in court earlier this month, will face trial on June 17 charged with murdering her daughter.
