The Indian Embassy in Doha confirmed this in a social media post, adding that the post mortem examinations for the five residents who died in the accident were completed last night. "Formalities for transporation of mortal remains are being coordinated by our HCI [High Commission of India] in Nairobi," the embassy stated.
