The representative stated: “He wasn’t sick and left home on Thursday, we don’t believe the school, that the boy had just collapsed in class during a math lesson.
“We want to know why they took him to the mortuary and went on to operate on him before letting us know.”
Additionally, the representative lamented noting that the doctors who performed the postmortem are to be faulted as no family member was present to authorize the procedure.
