Activists Protest Caroline Mwatha’s Postponed Autopsy

Caroline Mwatha's post-mortem postponed

A postmortem exercise on Caroline Mwatha’s body has been pushed to Monday. Something that has seen activists set to the streets.

The procedure that had been scheduled for today at the City Mortuary has left the family with disappointment after it was rescheduled for a later date.

Family members and human rights activists said they gathered at morgue early on Wednesday only to be told the autopsy will not take place as earlier planned.

“We are disappointed by the news coming in from the DCI that the government is not ready to proceed with the autopsy today until Monday,” Haki Africa executive director Hussein Khalid said.

Mwatha’s body was found on Tuesday at the City Mortuary after missing since February 8, 2019.

The statement released and signed by the Director of Criminal Investigation (DCI) Gorge Kinoti on Tuesday evening revealed that Mwatha died from botched abortion.

However, the family expressed doubts on the details revealed on the press and they were eagerly waiting for the autopsy procedure to determine the cause of death.

However, their expectations were not met.
