Brishti’s body was identified last week through DNA testing at the CID’s forensic lab. Later, DNA testing confirmed that the parts belonged to one victim. With this, total 16 bodies have been identified through DNA testing. However, two more bodies are yet to be identified, as their DNA samples are yet to match. Previously, on February 23, CID collected 32 DNA samples from the relatives of possible victims to cross-check against 19 bodies.
