Some exhibits have been picked from the scene to help in further investigations,&#8221; Mr Ainembabazi said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-body-text\" data-para-word-count=\"12\">The bodies were taken to Mulago National Referral Hospital for mortuary autopsy.<\/p>\n<p><!--\/.story-footer-link--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police officers load the bodies of five family members onto a patrol vehicle.
