Unnao rape case: forensic report of key witness’ death finds no poison
Lucknow sep 02:The forensic science laboratory (FSL) report of Yunus, a witness in the Unnao rape case who died recently, has ruled out poisoning as the cause of his death, a senior police official said Sunday
“The FSL report of Yunus has been received by SP Unnao. No poison has been detected in the viscera which was sent for chemical analysis,” Additional Director General of Police (Law and Order) Anand Kumar said here.
“This should end all speculation and settle the cause of his death beyond doubt,” he added.
Yunus had died on August 18 and his body was exhumed on August 25 and sent for postmortem examination as the victim’s uncle had alleged foul play in his death.
On Twitter, Congress president Rahul Gandhi had also termed the death “mysterious” and his burial “hurried”.
The man’s family, however, had said he died due to a liver ailment for which he was being treated since 2013.
Yunus was a witness in the CBI case registered after the death of the father of a minor who was allegedly raped by BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar.
The rape victim’s father died in April after being beaten up, allegedly by Sengar’s brother and others.

Put petty politics aside; it's not about one party, but India: Rahul on TMC's loss in polls
New Delhi (PTI): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday termed the BJP's victory in Bengal and Assam assembly polls a "theft" of the mandate, and a big step forward in the saffron party's mission to "destroy" Indian democracy.
Gandhi also came out in support of the TMC, which has been trounced by the BJP in the polls, and urged those gloating over the loss of Mamata Banerjee's party to put petty politics aside.
"Some in the Congress, and others, are gloating about TMC's loss.They need to understand this clearly - the theft of Assam and Bengal's mandate is a big step forward by the BJP in its mission to destroy Indian democracy," Gandhi said in a post on X.
"Put petty politics aside. This is not about one party or another. This is about India," he said in his post.
The BJP ousted Trinamool Congress from power in Bengal and captured power for the third time in a row in Assam in results of assembly polls declared on Monday.
