Odisha doctor under Crime Branch scanner for 11 months delay in submission of post-mortem report in rape murder case
In a case involving an alleged rape and murder of a woman in the Mayurbhanj district, an Odisha-based doctor who previously worked as a medical officer has come under the heat of the Crime Branch (CB) of Odisha Police for submitting the post-mortem report to the police 11 months after the alleged crime.
Seeking disciplinary action against the doctor, the Crime Branch sent a letter to the secretary of the State Health Department indicating that the investigation into the case had not progressed for nearly one year due to a delay in submission of the report, as per a TNIE report.
