“When we examined … the pattern of the injury, especially on the trauma I found on the head…. Hitting against a blunt substance like a wall would have a pattern,” he stated.
Midia pointed out that in the event of one hitting themselves on a wall, frontal bleeding on the head would be seen.
“But the bleeds that we found on the scalp…on the skin of the head were spaced, including on the face, sides of the head, and the back of the head,” he explained.
The pathologist, who conducted the procedure alongside the family’s representative Mutuma Zambezi dismissed the possibility of Ojwang' injuring himself.
“When we tie up together with other injuries that are well spread on parts of the body … including the upper limbs and the trunk … Then this is unlikely to be self-inflicted injury...
The cause of death is very clear; head injury, neck compression and other injuries spread all over the body that are pointing towards assault.” Midia told the press on Tuesday.
The post-mortem findings contradict a police report on Sunday, where Ojwang' was reported to have hit his head on the wall of a cell at Central Police Station.
