Autopsy Completed in Lombok in Killing of Spaniard Matilde Muñoz

The procedure followed delays tied to scarce forensic resources in West Nusa Tenggara.

Overview

  • The autopsy was performed at the Bhayangkara police hospital in Mataram and concluded around 11:00 local time after roughly two hours.
  • It began earlier than scheduled because the forensic doctor had another appointment, according to the hospital police unit head.
  • Authorities say two men linked to the Bumi Aditya hotel, an employee and a former employee, are in custody on accusations of premeditated murder and robbery.
  • The family intends to cremate the body in Lombok, a decision that would prevent a second autopsy in Spain, according to sources close to the case.
  • Muñoz’s body was found last week on a Senggigi beach after relatives and friends reported her missing in July, and the investigation remains active.
