Alleged Wife-Killer: Autopsy report inconclusive

So far, autopsy report on late Ronke Shonde, who was allegedly killed by her husband , Lekan , two weeks ago at their Egbeda residence in Lagos was inconclusive as at yesterday.

However, reliable sources said that pathologists at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital LASUTH had not been able to relate the death of the mother of two to the bruises on her face.


Besides, it was also learnt that the autopsy was inconclusive as the major pathologist was not in town.

Sources disclosed that “ The major pathologist traveled. He will return soon to perfect the autopsy. Ordinarily, it takes between two to three days to get an autopsy report. Though, the bruises on the corpse did not establish that it led to her death. That is all we can say for now, until the boss returns any moment from now”.

Recall that Lekan, who initially went into hiding, gave himself in to the Police in Lagos, where he denied culpability over his wife’s death. He has since been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and intelligence Department, SCIID, Yaba
