Post Mortem report which reveals cause of death is not final: SP
Shiroor swamiji death case
Udupi, August 03: SP Lakshman B Nimbargi said that the “Post Mortem report related to the death of Shiroor swamiji will just reveal the immediate cause for the death. It is not final. So, for giving the final opinion, the doctors are waiting for the FSL report”.
Speaking at a phone-in programme at his office here on Friday, the SP said that Forensic Science Lab would submit its report to the KMC hospital doctors who have conducted the postmortem and later, the doctors would cross-check both the reports and give their opinion. Later, the hospital would give that final opinion to the police department. The regional office of the Forensic Science Laboratory housed in Mangaluru was the only centre for Madikeri, Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, Chikmagalur and Uttara Kannada districts due to which, it has been getting more number of cases. So, the Shiroor swamiji’s FSL report is getting delayed. Reports on important cases were being given on priority. Suicide case reports which demand compensation, would also be given immediately. In a few cases which demand DNA test, FSL report would also be given immediately, he said.
Police security to mutts to continue
The police department would require the possession of Shiroor Moola Mutt and Udupi Shiroor mutt for few more days for investigation purpose. Soon after the investigation, the mutts would be handed over to the concerned persons. The police security given to both the mutts would continue, he said.
The DVRs of CCTV cameras found in the river were sent to Forensic Science Laboratory of Bengaluru and they were expecting its report, he said declining to answer whether the footage can be retrieved from the DVR which was thrown into the river or not.
For safety purpose, the Sode Mutt seer had kept all valuables like jewelry, silver ornaments, pooja materials and others which were in the Shiroor Moola Mutt, in the locker at Shiroor Mutt, he said.
The department has formed eight teams to investigate the case. Interrogation of many people would continue. As every case is different, they would require special attention. So, it is not so easy to find out the reasons, he said.

Maharashtra Congress chief Patole meets Kharge, dismisses resignation talk as 'rumours'
New Delhi, Nov 25: Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole on Monday dismissed as "rumours" talk of his resignation following the assembly polls debacle and stressed on "collective accountability" for the defeat.
Patole made the remarks after meeting Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge during which he conveyed that the result had not reflected the sentiments of the people of Maharashtra.
"Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi and other national and state leaders were leading Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) from the forefront during the assembly polls. So, we were sure that the trends were in favour of Maha Vikas Aghadi, even the citizens believed that," the Maharashtra Congress chief said.
"If I talk about Nanded, the Lok Sabha bypolls and assembly elections were held on the same day. In Lok Sabha bypolls, our candidate was winning in six assembly seats, whereas, in the assembly elections, we are not winning even a single seat," he said, adding that there cannot be such a "huge difference".
This is the sentiment among the people also and they have stated that this government in Maharashtra was not being formed on their votes, he claimed.
"So, I spoke to Mallikarjun Kharge on this," he added.
Asked whether he had offered to resign or the party had asked for his resignation after the Maharashtra assembly polls defeat, Patole said, "These are all rumours and there is no truth in them. There is collective accountability."
Patole also said he will meet Rahul Gandhi in a day or two and discuss all issues.
"Democracy is being finished. We have discussed that... there was no talk of resignation," he said.
The MVA alliance, comprising the Congress, NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) and Shiv Sena (UBT), was restrained to 46 seats by the Mahayuti that reaped a rich harvest of 230 seats in the 288-member House.
