A Dead Body Never Lies

Speaking the truth with impartial scientific knowledge, and advocating justice for the silent

Words and actions can mean a thousand things in any mortality case, but only the body can provide the truth to decipher the cause of death. Dr Rohayu, a forensic pathologist, knows she has a duty to the dead and lives by the statement, 'a dead body never lies'. She has taken the unsaid oath to be the voice of and safeguard the ones who are not able to tell their story. With Malaysia's diverse melting pot of race, culture, and religion, Dr Rohayu has been through a plethora of extraordinary scenarios.

No doubt in Dr Rohayu and Fatin's mind, every single person deserves to be heard, the right to love, and freedom to be their true self. With a combination of science and empathy, they have created a unique piece of writing. Step into Dr Rohayu's shoes as she brings you through these ten cases, which she believes will serve as a beacon of hope to the people who feel their voices are not worthy enough to be heard.
