The exhumation was witnessed by members of the victim’s family and representatives of the community. His remains were subsequently handed over to his family for burial in accordance with traditional rites.
The Army said investigations are ongoing and assured that all persons found to be involved in the incident would be prosecuted in accordance with the law.
