Police have recovered some body parts of a 16-year-old who was killed by a crocodile on Thursday in Mayuge District.
Last week, we reported about Shafiq Watangwa, a primary six pupil at Musubi primary school in Musubi village, Bukatube Sub County, who had gone swimming with his two friends when a crocodile attacked them, mauled him and run off with his body.
The deceased's father Abdul Masaba with help from residents and Marine police launched a hunt for the crocodile and hoped to recover Watangwa's body.
However, Masaba said on Sunday that some of his son's body parts were retrieved from a swamp along Lake Victoria shoreline and these include; the upper chest and legs. He however says the remaining body parts are suspected to have been completely eaten up by the killer crocodile.
Fishermen have since agreed to mount a search for the crocodiles' hideout to recover the deceased's missing body parts, if they still exist.
