That’s according to the African Transformation Movement based on statistics released in Parliament recently.
The party says there must be systems to identify the bodies including advanced DNA profiling, fingerprint analysis and the establishment of a centralised database for unidentified bodies in mortuaries. ATM spokesperson Zama Ntshona says there must also be a tracking system for missing persons as well as alternative burial methods that are eco-friendly.
“As for the African Transformation Movement, just the thought there can be over 3 186 deceased bodies which have not been claimed across the nation, it is reason enough to call for an urgent intervention because it is now clear that we have a humanitarian crisis and a public health concern that necessitates urgent action.
According to reports released in April, the state had recorded over 2 000 unclaimed bodies in state mortuaries.
