This was someone who knew what they were doing. "The removal of the nails can only be explained as an attempt by the assailant to make it difficult for investigators to get their DNA traces. We took the intact nails, from which we will try to obtain DNA samples," he explained. The pathologist added that naturally, humans would fight back when attacked or killed, and it was possible to get DNA traces of the attackers from the nails and hands of the victim. He was optimistic that the samples obtained would help the police narrow down the killers after being analysed.
