Investigator and Researchers have on Monday the 15th April 2019 found remains of the senior military officers killed on November 11, 1994, at Yundum Barracks. The bodies have been found on Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th at around 7:00 pm. Seven bodies have so far been uncovered. It could be recalled that TRRC witness Alhagi Kanyi during his testimony informed Commissioners that bodies of the alleged coup plotters were dumped in a ditch just behind the cookhouse at Yundum Barrack.
It is over two weeks now since the TRRC Investigators started exhuming bodies of the alleged coup plotters. Thomas R.J Gomez lead investigator at TRRC who also doubles as a country's forensic and Archaeologist expert told NEWS BITE that an Antimoteum system and DNA are to be used to identify bodies of alleged coup plotters. He added that amongst the remains found were legs, bones, tooths, skulls, humorous and underwear pans, etc.
He disclosed that some artifacts such as ring, and a robe which were used to tie the alleged coup plotters during the execution were also found. He pointed out that there are 3rd other remaining ditches which they suspected to be carrying other remain bodies are to also expected to be excavated soon.
