•We’re awaiting approval for mass burial –Chief mortician

Most of the dead bodies had gaping wounds, which the mortuary attendants managed to stitch with unskilled craftsmanship. When news filtered out that a large number of corpses littered the FMC mortuary, the Archbishop of the Catholic Archdiocese of Owerri, Most Reverend Anthony Obinna, visited the facility and was taken aback by what he saw.

He was granted permission, but when Opara learnt that our correspondent would accompany him into the storage area, his demeanour changed automatically. Unclad, some of the embalmed bodies stood shoulder to shoulder, while others were either piled in threes or more on the tiled floor, or heaped on improvised wooden platforms.

It was reliably gathered that after the alleged extrajudicial killings that took place on May 28, 2021, at Naze Junction, in the Owerri North Local Government Area, several corpses from the scene were dumped at the FMC mortuary, including that of 21-year-old Samuel, who was allegedly killed in the presence of his mother.where the bleeding corpse of the 300-level student of the Imo State University was seen lying naked on the mortuary floor, other corpses with wounds were also captured.
