MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Justice said that it ordered to conduct another autopsy on former Bureau of Corrections Deputy Security Officer Ricardo Zulueta, a co-accused in the Percival Mabasa or Percy Lapid slay case.
"To dispel doubts and rumors, once and for all, the DOJ is also contemplating seeking Dr. Raquel Fortun's expertise to conduct an autopsy on Zulueta's remains," Remulla was quoted as saying. Zulueta, who died last Friday, was reportedly brought to the hospital due to severe chest pains. He died shortly after he was rushed to the hospital.
According to the website of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the said cause of death occurs when there is bleeding directly into the brain tissue, which often forms a clot within the brain.
