Mohbad’s autopsy results to be ready in three weeks

His death generated controversies across the country and
beyond, prompting Lagos State Government to direct a coroner’s inquest into the
death.

The inquest, which began on October 13, 2023, is taking
place at the Ikorodu Magistrates’ Court.

Somiari told the Coroner, Magistrate Adedayo Shotobi: “We
expected to get the first set of autopsy results in three to four weeks and
re-confirm to authenticate the cause of the death.

“We searched for multiple possibilities, to check if poison
was involved in the death of Mohbad since no actual cause was mentioned.”

The forensic expert assured the public of adequate security
and monitoring of samples for the autopsy.

“We have a place where items are stored for safety and
security of results. There is a procedure for monitoring samples moved abroad,”
he said.
