RG Kar Rape-Murder Case: CBI Finds More Procedural Lapses In Autopsy Report

New Delhi: Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) officials have found some more major procedural lapses in the post-mortem of the victim’s body in the RG Kar Medical College & Hospital rape and murder case.

Of the eight bodies whose autopsies were done at the morgue of RG Kar Medical College & Hospital on August 9, only the one, that of the woman doctor, was done after sunset, which is normally against the protocol. The victim’s body was recovered from the seminar hall within the RG Kar complex on the morning of August 9.

Secondly, the post-mortem was completed just within 70 minutes, which the investigating officials feel was an unusually short period considering the seriousness of the matter. These two factors, sources said, have created doubts on whether the completion of the autopsy within such a short period and that too after sunset was done deliberately so that the body can be cremated at the earliest to close all doors for a second autopsy, The Free Press Journal reported quoting sources.
