It has emerged that the body that was retrieved on Monday evening by law enforcement officers is not of Bishop Dominic Nyondo.
This follows an identification process by the family at Kitwe central hospital mortuary.
Bishop Nyondo has been missing for the past two weeks after allegedly throwing himself in the crocodile infested kafue river.
At the time of his alleged death, Bishop Nyondo was accused of sexually abusing teenagers and women in his church on the pretext of exorcising demons.
