An autopsy on the body of athlete Agnes Tirop has revealed that she died as a result of injuries caused by stab wounds on the neck and blunt force trauma on the head.

Two pathologists and forensic physicians carried out a three-hour-long postmortem on the body and said the cause of her death was mainly due to stab wounds.

Dr Dorothy Njeru who led the exercise said they had prepared a report and handed it over to the DCI for investigations.

"We have handed the report to the DCI team and the rest we leave it to them to investigate," she said.

The postmortem exercise was carried out at the Iten County Referral hospital.

Family members and DCi officers were present. The body was then released for collection by her parents for burial on Saturday in Nandi county.
