Hi moralCoral, Thanks for your comments and suggestions. I checked the following site" Turtles of the world" and compared pictures of East African Serrated Mud Turtle and The African Helmeted Turtle entering their scientific names in the search and found that This picture matches with latter than former. Could you please check up. I would request other members also to give their opinion.
Thanks.
