Speaking to Nation.Africa, Gillian Munyao, Rex's mother, revealed that reports from both the government and the family's pathologists indicated that Rex had sustained a fatal wound to his thigh, resulting in significant blood loss.
The post-mortem conducted on Friday was delayed for over four hours as the family waited for a file to arrive from the Central Police Station, prolonging their frustration.
"After the body was brought here yesterday (Thursday), we were told to be here (Nairobi City Mortuary) at 8am, which we did. But we have been waiting here for more than four hours and we are frustrated," said Gillian Munyao, the deceased's mother.
