The state media on Wednesday released a photograph as proof that Jonathan Moyo's daughter Zanele who was found dead on Saturday in her room in Cap Town South Africa could have bled to death.

According to Chronicle, "The blood appears to start from the doorway of the bathroom leading to a toilet cubicle. It is the spot where the University of Cape Town student's lifeless body was found lying face down shortly before midday last Saturday. She was fully clothed, dressed in the same outfit she had been last seen wearing on Wednesday last week - the day her family believes she met her fate."

On Monday the Cape Times reported that South Africa police spokesman Frederick van Wyk had said there were no signs of external injuries on Zanele's body.

Her family says despite earlier being told by police that Zanele also had a head injury, the coroner had found no external injuries. A small depression on her forehead, which had become covered in blood, is thought to have misled early police responders.

South African police say the cause of death remains a mystery, but they are tracking two Zambian men, including one Stephen Kenneth Newman Chitobolo, who was the last to be seen with Zanele.
