MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Justice has asked top forensic pathologist Raquel Fortun to conduct a second autopsy on the body of one of the alleged middlemen in the killing of radio broadcaster Percy Lapid.

 

Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin "Boying" Remulla confirmed this to reporters on Monday.

 

“I have also spoken to her to ask her conduct second autopsy — a validative autopsy. She will also give observations, because that is the agreement that I had with Roy Mabasa, who I spoke to yesterday together with the son of Percy Lapid.” Remulla said.
