The results of the investigation opened in France on the causes of the death of the Congolese opponent, Guy-Brice Parfait Kolélas have put an end to the rumours of polonium poisoning that flooded the Web.
The communiqué reporting on these conclusions also states that « the autopsy carried out on 23 March 2021 concluded that cardiorespiratory failure was due to severe bilateral diffuse pneumopathy compatible with the Congolese medical finding of Covid 19, contamination with the SARS-CoV-2 virus being confirmed by molecular virology ».
The same press release reveals that after taking off from Brazzaville for France, the medical plane on board which included a ‘medical doctor’ and the ‘family doctor’ of Guy-Brice Parfait Kolélas, made a first stop in Chad and a second in Algeria. It was at the moment of take-off after the second stopover that ‘the state of health of Guy-Brice Parfait Kolélas worsened’.
According to the prosecutor’s office, the patient’s death ‘was noted on 22 March 2021 at 1.40am (0.40am GMT, editor’s note) while the plane carrying him from Brazzaville had landed at 1.35am at Paris-Le Bourget airport’.
The Covid-19 that got the better of Denis Sassou N’Guesso’s challenger was only detected on Friday 19 March, the last day of campaigning for the presidential elections of 21 March 2021.
