Forensics expert Dr Mohd Suhani Mohd Noor says the cause of death could only be determined for two out of 114 bodies sent to the hospital where he works.

PUTRAJAYA: Some of the victims dug out from the mass graves in Wang Kelian between May and June 2015 could have been dead for about three to four years, a forensics expert told a royal commission of inquiry today.

Suhani, who is Hospital Sultanah Bahiyah’s senior forensic consultant, was testifying at the royal commission of inquiry into the discovery of mass graves and human trafficking camps in Perlis three years ago. “In my opinion, if you say a person has been dead for a few years, an estimation of three to four years is logical. Ten years may be too long,” he said, adding that the time of death would be less precise if a person died many years ago, as opposed to if the person had died two to three days earlier.

“The cause of death for 112 bodies could not be determined as they had been severely decomposed,” he said.
