On September 17, 2019, a leading Dutch pathologist conducted Tob Cohen's autopsy, revealing the horrific details of his murder.

According to Algemeen Dagblad, a leading Dutch newspaper, images from the scan showed that Cohen was tortured before being overpowered by his killers.

The killers smashed Cohen's skull, dislocated his left leg, and broke his hands as he desperately fought them off.

DNA materials collected from Cohen's fingers and under his fingernails will provide credible leads in unmasking his killers once the analysis is completed.

Cohen's decomposing body was found in an empty underground water tank at his posh Kitisuru villa, wrapped in many layers of black plastic.

He was reported missing from his Lower Kabete home in Nairobi between July 19 and July 20.

Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti described the murder as 'horrible,' with Cohen's hands, feet, and neck tied before he was killed.
