Director of Technical and Scientific Research of the National Police indicated that genetic analysis results are expected.
Marco Ortiz, director of Scientific Technical Investigation of the National Police, revealed this Sunday that there are still eight bodies of inmates murdered in the massacre registered in the Litoral Penitentiary, on September 28.
This massacre left 118 people deprived of liberty murdered.
Ortiz explained that due to the state they were in, in those days it was decided to carry out a genetic analysis to identify them. He said that this process is complex and extensive.
“This is already known to the Prosecutor’s Office, there are some corpses that so far are in this process of genetic identification and we hope that in the next few days, with the results, the complete identification of those corpses can be carried out,” said Ortiz.
He stressed that as long as a body is not identified, it cannot be removed from the Laboratory of Criminalistics and Forensic Sciences.
Ortiz remarked that there are relatives of inmates killed in that massacre who continue to search for the bodies.
