According to Midia, Ojwang's body had external injuries besides his head, which effectively ruled out the police's initial version of events that his wounds were self-inflicted.
"The cause of death is very clear. A head injury, neck compression, and we also have other injuries on other parts of the body that are pointing towards assault," Midia said.
The pathologist further revealed that specimens have been gathered and sent to other investigative agencies to gather more evidence to help in corroborating the initial pathologist's report.
"When you combine all the injuries in the body, they are consistent with a struggle," he added. "There were signs of struggle generally, but they are well described in the report.
Initially slated for Monday, Ojwang's autopsy was pushed back by a day after government pathologist Dr. Johansen Oduor stepped aside, citing a conflict of interest due to his blood relation to the deceased.
The autopsy report came after Ojwang's family lawyer gave insights on the state of his body on Monday, revealing that the deceased had hints of defensive wounds on his hands and back.
This revelation cast doubt on the National Police Service's initial version of events, which suggested Ojwang had hit his head on a cell wall hours after his detention at the Central Police Station.
On Monday, activists piled pressure on authorities and pathologists as they stormed the City Mortuary, demanding to view Ojwang's body.
