Following the destruction of the mortuary, relations of the dead stormed the area to convey the remains of their loved ones to other mortuaries located in the community.

A mortuary owner in the area who pleaded anonymity confirmed that over 50 corpses from the demolished Mortuary have been deposited at his mortuary by their relatives.

“The mortuary has always been accused of harvesting dead body parts and selling them to ritualists. There have been too many stories about Prince O mortuary. So, the youths of Ndiolumbe community decided to destroy the mortuary and burn the ambulances. It was an awful sight as corpses were scattered everywhere. Nobody could stand the odour oozing from the mortuary,” a resident of the community told.
