The executive secretary of Gashaki sector, Munyetwali Jean Damascene has said that the two bodies are to be taken for post mortem. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe have found the bodies of women that had drowned in Lake Ruhondo. We are working with Rwanda Investigation Bureau to take them to a health facility for postmortem,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
\u201cFinding their bodies might have been delayed because the lake is more than 40-meter deep and contains mud,\u201d Munyentwali added. <\/p>\n
The bodies are found five days after the incident happened. <\/p>\n
The two women drowned as they went to Gahunga market coming from Kinoni sector in Burera district. <\/p>\n
Arriving at the harbour, the usual engine powered boat was not operating that the women were facilitated to cross with a pirogue conducted by a 11-year old child. The canoe was blown by wind and capsized shortly before reaching the destination. <\/p>\n
Three people onboard and the sailor survived while the two women drowned immediately. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
