A state CID officer said teams from the homicide department had been sent to the spot near Mankundu railway station in Hooghly district to investigate the unnatural death of Manna.
"They will verify the place where the body was found and also visit the Walsh hospital in Serampore where the autopsy was done," he said.
Yesterday, officer in-charge of Sheoraphuli Government Railway Police(GRP) S Bhattacharya had said "prima facie it is a case of suicide".
Meanwhile, the family members of Manna claimed that there was enough evidence to prove that Manna had been murdered.
"Arindam had two mobile phones - one had Vodafone (9836700511) and the other had Airtel (9903037757) connection.
The police recovered the cell phones, but the SIM cards are missing," Manna's brother Debaprasad Moitra claimed.
"The SIM cards have been deliberately taken out to destroy the evidence. Arindam's hands and legs have been broken and his eyes were jutting out. This cannot happen in a suicide. It is a murder and we want the criminals to be punished," Moitra said.
A second postmortem on Manna's body will be carried out on Thursday after his family members lodged a complaint at the police station in Dasnagar that the previous autopsy at Walsh Hospital in Serampore yesterday was carried out in a hurry.
