Kyiv • UNN
The results of the autopsy did not allow to establish the cause of death of the former Deputy Prosecutor General of Ukraine Olga Kolinko and her daughter. Additional examinations have been ordered and the results are pending.
The autopsy results failed to provide information on the cause of death of former Deputy Prosecutor General Olha Kolinko and her daughter, who were found dead at home. Therefore, examinations have been ordered, including histology. This was reported by Olena Berezhna, a spokeswoman for the National Police of Ukraine, to UNN, adding that the results of the examinations are still pending.
The results of the autopsy could not give a picture of the cause of death, because putrefactive changes in the body had already occurred, so examinations were ordered and sent for histology, etc. Only after they are received will it be possible to make any assessment
She noted that the appointed examinations would last several weeks.
