MANILA, Philippines — A full forensic autopsy is required to determine whether footballer Kieth Absalon and his labor leader cousin Nolvin Absalon were actually shot as claimed by the military, a forensic expert said. “This requires a full forensic autopsy and crime scene investigation, a full forensic investigation,” Fortun said in an online exchange. A full forensic investigation, she said, would answer a lot of questions surrounding the blast that killed the Absalon cousins last week, including if they were finished off by being shot. In this case, shoulder and thigh gunshot wounds? Report says gunshot wound near eye, but again, I ask what’s the doctor’s basis for identifying them as a gunshot wound,” she said.
