His mother, Selina Tadya confirmed the new developments saying the family was now preparing for burial.
“We received the results yesterday and they are confirming that the remains are of Livingstone and we are now arranging for his burial,” Tadya said.
At the moment Livingstone’s remains are in Mutare.
Prior to the incident, Livingstone was arrested for theft.
After receiving alleged assault from his teachers, the police and his headmaster in full view of his colleagues.
He was initially taken to Mutasa police station before he was released as he was due to sit for his final exams.
Unfortunately he never showed up for the exam and had been missing till then.
June 20, 2020 the Criminal Investigation Department which was in charge of the investigations discovered Livingstone’s remains a kilometre away from St Matthias Tsonzo High School.
The case has led to the suspension of the school’s Headmaster, Mr Maxwell Sambona.
