Following the update on Mohbad’s autopsy results, which emerged months after his death the pathologist revealed that the cause of Mohbad’s death could not be ascertained because the autopsy was conducted after his body had decomposed.
During a court hearing today in Lagos, the pathologist went on to state that it would have been good if his body had been taken to the mortuary after he passed away, but rather he was buried for over a week, the body had already started decomposing, so when the autopsy was carried out, they could not ascertain the real cause of his death.
Concerning the rumor going around that there was fresh blood on his coffin, the pathologist stated that it rained the day when Mohbad was exhumed, and there was a mixture of the rain and the soil that brought out a red color that looked like blood.
He also said that Mohbad was not buried alive and that he had died before he was buried. The pathologist also stated that Mohbad was not strangled.
He showed the cuts and parts of the neck that were removed and tested to verify that statement. He also showed the liver and the kidney that was cut from Mohbad’s body, which showed that he was also not poisoned.
