Ronke did not die from marks of violence – Autopsy

A preliminary autopsy report on late Ronke Shonde has said the victim was not killed by the marks of violence on her.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the result, which was still sketchy, showed that the cause of the death might be more complex than earlier thought.
Our correspondent had reported how Lekan, 51, allegedly beat his wife, Ronke, to death at their home in the Egbeda-Idimu area of the state last Thursday.
Lekan, a dock worker in the Apapa area, who spoke with our correspondent while in hiding, had denied complicity in the death, saying he only slapped her that night.
He instead accused Ronke of sleeping with one Kayode, the general manager of a publishing company where she worked as the human resources manager.
After three days in hiding, the suspect gave himself up to the poilce.
A source on Tuesday said the report was still being compiled, adding that only a phase had been completed.
He said, “As of now, the report showed that the marks of violence on the victim have nothing to do with her death. Other areas are still being explored. The actual thing that killed her has not been stated.”
