Answer:

Is it likely that his body was moved after death? The answer is NO

Why or why not?

This is due to postmortem staining seen on his back which would have been observed on other parts of the body if the body was moved after death

Step-by-step explanation:

Livor mortis: is the stage where the heart stops pumping blood through the circulatory system causing blood accumulation at the lowest point of the body. It's also called postmortem stain.

It helps in judging the time of death for a body, the location and position of the body if it's at the spot.
