Marie Mendy laid to rest as education ministry dispatches delegation

Marie Mendy, the 21-year-old girl who died under disturbing circumstances in Busumbala was laid to rest on Saturday.

Busumbala was rocked earlier this month when a man and Marie Mendy’s bodies were retrieved from a home with police saying their initial investigations pointed to a case of murder-suicide. Other theories have however continued to swirl.

The duo was buried on Saturday in Busumbala where the education ministry sent a delegation.

A statement by the education ministry said: “Adieu to our Dearest Marie Mendy! Officials of the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education led by the Permanent Secretary, Mr. Louis Moses Mendy, joined Mourners at Busumbala to pay their last respects to Marie Mendy. May her soul rest in perfect peace!”
