A family in Malindi, Kilifi County is puzzled after the body of their relative was repatriated to Kenya from Italy with missing internal organs.

A postmortem conducted at the Malindi Referral Hospital mortuary revealed the body of Amani Justine Luwali was missing vital body organs, including the heart, major blood vessels, kidneys, eyeballs and liver.

Ms Luwali's elder brother, James Karisa, said she was married to an Italian man and the two had a daughter. The couple moved to Italy in 2016.

'We learnt of my sister's demise on September 27th, 2022. We received a phone call from one of our relatives in Italy that she was found dead in her house,' Mr Karisa said.

When Ms Luwali's body was found, it had bloodstains on the nose and mouth, prompting her family in Kenya to order a postmortem to establish the cause of death.

The postmortem report said the cause of death could not be determined due to "missing vital organs such as heart, liver, both kidneys and major blood vessels. It appears organ harvesting has been done."

Ms Luwali was 35 when she died. The family said she had endured domestic violence from her husband.

The family has reported the matter to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations in Malindi and the INTERPOL Police as they urge for speedy investigation on the death of their kin.
