A family spokesperson, Taona Mhanda, told mourners that the family and relatives were shocked to discover the missing body parts when they took the late hero, popularly known as Dzinashe Machingura, to a funeral parlour.

His kidney, liver and intestines were reportedly missing, possibly after hospital routines.

“They (hospital officials) are saying that they took the parts for examination, but we did not expect them to take the whole liver and kidney, we only discovered that the parts were taken at the funeral home,” the young brother said.

“The doctor had said they were taking mere samples but not the whole parts. We are going to see the pathologist on Monday (today) for an explanation.”

Mhanda died last Thursday after a battle with cancer of the colon.

He was a renowned military commander and trainer but fell out of favour with an elite clique in Zanu in 1977 for his outspoken personality.

He was not conferred with hero status.
