“Our findings at the second autopsy include marked pallor of organs, pneumonia (infection of the lungs), infections of the liver and kidneys as well as the heart. These infections emanated from the ankle infection described earlier in the report. Microscopic sections also confirmed these findings.”

“Death was caused by Septicaemia following infections of the lungs and kidneys arising from the ankle wound.No evidence of blunt force trauma in this body.The findings in the oesophagus and stomach are not compatible with chemical intoxication. Death in this case is natural.”
