By the recommendations of the homicide experts, the body of the deceased has been exhumed for a new autopsy, and toxicological samples have been collected to determine whether the deceased had consumed alcohol before the incident and the percentage of alcohol consumed, as well as any other toxic substances before his death.
Similarly, DNA samples have been collected from the deceased and persons of interest in this case for comparison, to determine if allegations of sexual molestation before the death of the deceased are credible.
Other aspects of investigations, such as forensic analysis of CCTV footage obtained from the apartment where the incident occurred and cyber analysis of digital data, have also been conducted to conduct a thorough investigation.
In the interim, we are awaiting the government pathologist’s report, which will inform a portion of our ultimate course of action.
