Examinations have now shown that while starvation appears to be the main cause of death, some victims were strangled, beaten or suffocated and others were missing organs. “Post-mortem reports have established missing organs in some of the bodies of victims who have been exhumed,” Inspector Martin Munene said in an affidavit.
