A Metallic rod was inserted near Rebello's right hip a few years ago. The limbless torso bore the same three-inch metallic rod. Also, there are over half-a-dozen stab wounds, mostly on his abdomen which could have punctured his kidney and on the head," said a Crime Branch officer, who added, "We have recovered seven pieces of Rebello's body parts so far. The only piece remaining is his thigh." All body parts are being kept at Sion hospital where DNA tests will be conducted to confirm Rebello's identity.
