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.
