One of the two bodies, found by passers- by, was decomposing. According to police sources, the local administration and police representatives ordered the burial of the two corpses “without any expertise”.

“We should carry out investigations before proceeding with their burial. This is necessary,” indicates a police source.

In the area, no one is missing from the families, we learn.

“The two men were killed in another localities and thrown into the Lake Tanganyika,” say residents of Rimbo hill.

The two bodies bring to four the number of people murdered in Makamba province in less than a week.
