KOLKATA: Lalbazar is making plans to put in writing a letter to the state well being department complaining against misleading preliminary (verbal and non-written) autopsy reviews. Senior officials claimed investigation in some necessary circumstances are getting behind schedule both due to inconclusive or confusing reviews.
Police have cited no less than 3 murder circumstances –— two at Bansdroni and one at Kolkata Leather Complex police station — in past six months where the autopsy reviews had both indicated they had been accidental deaths or had remained inconclusive with the “final opinion reserved for an additional date.”
“While an autopsy report can always be stored ‘pending’ to ensure accuracy, a first opinion is helping us decide the course of action. There is nothing wrong in holding the overall report pending, but frequently that bit of recommendation — proper after finishing the autopsy — is helping in deciding the drift of the probe,” defined a retired officer, who has spent years at the anti-homicide wing of detective department.
The detective department may be making plans to train native police staff so they are able to select up lines of a imaginable homicidal demise and press for a sooner autopsy. “Since this can be a extremely professional house and the forensic report can make or ruin a case, we can appeal to Sasthya Bhawan to look in to this factor,” said a police supply.
Police sources said the most recent is the murder of Mamata Agarwal in Bansdroni where the autopsy surgeon had first of all ruled out murder. “Mamata was lifeless on her bed lifeless in a peculiar model. The accused, Ayush Agarwal, had scratch marks on his face. These had been some marks that, as investigators, lets not miss. We puzzled Ayush closely, who later spilled the beans,” claimed an officer.
A an identical revel in awaited investigators on April 3 when Murshidabad-based labourer Rabiul Islam’s demise was first of all believed to be an accident. The autopsy, therefore, came about a day later. But experienced law enforcement officials and the FSL professionals managed to crack the case in nine days.
Similarly, a girl found lifeless near a waterbody with regards to the Basanti Highway beneath the Kolkata Leather Complex police station on October 15 final year, was declared a sufferer of an accident in spite of a scarf being found tied on her neck. The police later established that it was a murder.
In many reviews when the autopsy is entire but the clinical examiner has sent out specimens for additional testing, or wishes extra time to review the police reviews or clinical data, the preliminary decision will likely be that the case is “pending”.
“Pending manner you must look ahead to the results. It does not mean ‘we do not know’. It does not mean that the autopsy findings had been "inconclusive.” Something is inconclusive when you cannot draw conclusions about it finally the ideas is to be had. The autopsy itself could also be conclusive, but the clinical examiner isn't going to let you know that—as a result of they are nonetheless operating to finish the demise investigation and that may take a while,” defined a surgeon.
