SantiagoOf the documents found next to the 15 bones 10 nautical miles from the municipality of Río San Juan, one belonged to Aly Badara Diop, whose identity card states that he was the president of the Sports and Cultural Association of citizens of Guidimakha in Mauritania.
Diop, 32, was living in the town of Gouraye in Mauritania and is believed to be among the group found on a dinghy that left Senegal in Africa several months ago. License 00000382 states that Diop was also a football coach for Inter Arena and the Wagadou league.
The group also includes Tall Yankhoba, 35 years old, born in Pikine, Senegal, but with a domicile and resident card in the city of Malika in Mauritania.
Another card found was that of a man who had student documents, the son of Sekbu Gassama and his mother Hatoumata Kante, residing in the city of Toya in Mali. The student’s name was erased by the long time in the sun and sea.
Tragedy
In Senegal, where the castaways are believed to have left from, it has been reported that the group left for Europe in early January of this year, paying between 1,500 and 2,000 dollars for the trip.
Coulibal Adama, also a native of Mali, residing in the city of Kati, according to the document with the number 6628196, he was a professional.
The medical team working on the autopsy of the 15 skeletons found in a boat plans to complete the process in two weeks.
To determine the cause of death, identities and ages, the Northern region of the National Institute of Forensic Sciences (INACIF) has a team made up of a forensic anthropologist, a forensic dentist and a forensic doctor.
Forensic team works for identifications
The director of the regional organization, Fátima Frómeta, explained that the forensic anthropologist will determine the ages of the 14 victims, the forensic dentist to identify and compare them with other relatives and the forensic doctor to determine the cause of death. Frómeta said that they cannot establish whether the castaways died from dehydration or another cause.
