Police and three pathologists have denied any role in the disappearance of organs from a body preserved at the Kenyatta University Funeral Home.

In their replying affidavits, Dorothy Njeru, Peter Ndegwa and Fredrick Okinyi, who conducted an autopsy on the body of Peter Macharia on June 22, said they did not know where the missing body parts were.
