Forensic experts believe that as per jurisdiction the police should have sent the body of Siddarth Sanghavi to Nair postmortem centre and not KEM

Representational picture
The decision to send the decomposed body of Siddharth Sanghavi to KEM post-mortem centre instead of Nair, has not gone down well with forensic experts in the city. Interestingly, on Tuesday (a day after Sanghavi's body was sent to KEM), the N M Joshi Marg police, sent a body of a male, who was declared dead before admission by the casualty doctor at Nair hospital, for post-mortem at Nair itself.
A senior forensic expert said "As a matter of practice, the officers are aware that medico-legal autopsy cases within their jurisdiction have to be brought to Nair post-mortem centre. If they could refer the burn case to us on Tuesday, they should have done the same on Monday too, when they found the body of Sanghavi."
