A police officer on Friday told a Meru court how the discovery that a body on which a post mortem was to be performed did not have a heart, paralysed the exercise.
Appearing before Meru Chief Magistrate Dominica Nyambu, Sgt Anthony Leiboke said he heard Chief Government Pathologist Johansen Oduor, who was leading the autopsy to establish the cause of death of Mzee Benedict Karau, saying that the body had no heart.
