Gov’t Pathologist Johnsen Oduor Releases DNA Results of 21 Endarasha Victims

Gov’t Pathologist Johnsen Oduor Releases DNA Results of 21 While Speaking to journalists at the Naromoru Hospital in Nyeri.

According to the pathologist, a team consisting of officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and counsellors had been dispatched to help in releasing the bodies to the parents.

He stated,”We have the pleasure to announce that we have received the results of the DNA of 21 Endarasha academy victims, and all of them have been identified,”

“We are in the process of contacting the parents and we have a team of DCI and chancellors to help in that.”

Oduor further announced that once all the bodies were released, the government would then chip in to cater for the victims’ burials.

This comes after the committee formed to investigate the tragedy recommended a reduction in the number of boarders to facilitate decongestion.

The announcement was also made after DCI officers probing the fire tragedy handed over the school to the board of management for reconstruction.

Meanwhile, the school owner, David Kinyua noted that once the school is reopened, all the parents would be recalled for a prayer meeting during which they are expected to discuss the way forward.
