POLICE Commissioner Frank Prendergast says post mortem results in relation to the couple that was found dead in their home at Mbumburu early last month is not yet ready.

Responding to questions by the media, he said police are still waiting for the post mortem results of the couple before they can release anything regarding the cause of death.

He said investigation into the matter is still ongoing and that he cannot comment further on the case as it will disturb the process of investigation.

Early last month residents of MbuMburu/Lengakiki were shocked at the tragic discovery of a couple who were found dead in their home.

Police were called to the scene and retrieved the bodies around 8.30pm before transporting the bodies to the National Referral Hospital.

Residence of Lengakiki were shocked at the sad news and gathered along the road as police entered the house to carry out initial investigations and also to retrieve the bodies.

Reports stated that residents close to the house where the two deceased had lived were not aware of their tragic death.

However, curiosity arose when they realised that the house was quieter than usual and the fact that an unusually large number of flies were circulating the house, battering the windows.

It was then that the neighbours kicked down the locked doors and were met by a foul smell coming from inside that they called the police.
