Daho said the French and British experts who conducted the tests at the request of the French Enquiries and Analysis Office (BEA) have been in Moroni since Friday.
Sources said the tests were carried out on 59 corpses recovered by the robot of the EDT Ares ship of the American company, Phoenix, in mid-September and 25 others recovered in Tanzania.
According to a COSEP official, the French and British experts will compare their results to give details about the identification of the corpses, which were the object of those tests and whose samplings were sent to London and Paris on 22 Se p tember.
"Although the British experts already gave their results more than a month ago, the commission of inquiry has decided to wait for the results from the Fren ch experts to avoid confusion," the spokesman of the victims' families, Saïd Ahmed El Kabir said in Moroni.
"From now on, nothing will prevent the burial of the corpses," said El Kebir, who is leading the protest of families opposed to the idea of mass burial of the crash victims.
Sources said 152 people, including 11 crew members died in the crash of the Yemeni A310 airplane on 30 June off the Comoran coasts.
Bahia Bakari, a 14-year-old French-Comoran, who was the only survival of the tragedy, had joined her father in Paris the day after the crash in which her mother died.
