In order to identify the victims, forensic experts from the Directorate of Forensic Services, together with the Joint Medical Teams from the Police, UPDF and Bwera, obtained biological samples from the unidentified bodies and from the relatives who were missing their children. 

The samples, marked Body 1-17, were immediately submitted to the forensic lab for further DNA analysis.

Police Spokesperson, Fred Enanga, said these were matched with some persons and 11 of these marched.

He said the relevant persons will on Tuesday, 27, at 11 am, pick up the remains of their loved ones, at the Bwera Hospital mortuary.
