Missing persons: DNA sample of unidentified victims sent to Islamabad
DNA samples from the body of an unidentified Abbas Town blast victim were dispatched to Islamabad on Tuesday so that it could be matched to that of the relatives.
There are 12 other bodies which have yet to be identified. When asked why samples from only one unidentified body were sent for testing, Dr Aslam Pechuho, the police surgeon, said, “It is a very complex test and can only be conducted when there are samples from people who might be related to the victim.”
Samples from the other victims will be sent as soon as their family members approach the Sindh police and make a claim.
He did not divulge how long it would take for the results of the test to arrive.
