Four more people were killed in Kenya, post-mortem results released on Wednesday have indicated.

The four were either hit by a blunt object or suffocated; this is according to the findings from 36 bodies that were examined by pathologists working at the mortuary.

"16 of the examined persons were teenagers while 19 were adults. We could not ascertain the specific age of one of the victims. The number of males were 17 while females were 19," the Pathologist said.

"Four of them had asphyxia prior to death. There were obvious signs of strangulation on their bodies." The results also show that 23 of the deceased died of starvation.

The autopsies further show a variation in the times of deaths of the victims, leading to difficulties in determining the causes of death in 7 of the bodies.

The process of DNA samples submission also continued for the second day on Wednesday with 22 families giving their samples. This as more families showed up to search for their missing kin

Autopsies have so far been done on 76 out of 109 bodies from the shallow mass graves.

The exercise is expected to be completed by Friday to pave way for the resumption of exhumation at the nearby forest.
