Forensic Report Reveals Key Evidence in Twisha Sharma's Death Case
Forensic Findings in Twisha Sharma's Case
The final forensic report from the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Delhi regarding the death of former model and actress Twisha Sharma has been released. According to sources, the medical board at AIIMS has confirmed in its report submitted to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) that there is a strong possibility that a gymnastics belt was used in the incident. Laboratory tests revealed the presence of skin tissue from the deceased on the belt, which corresponds with the injuries and patterns found on her neck.
Details of the Medical Board's Investigation
A five-member medical board, established following directives from the Madhya Pradesh High Court, has submitted an extensive 11-page report to the CBI in a sealed envelope. Twisha underwent a second autopsy at AIIMS Delhi on May 24, after an initial autopsy at AIIMS Bhopal yielded inconclusive results, primarily due to the absence of the material allegedly used for hanging. Subsequently, the police seized the gymnastics belt and handed it over to specialists at AIIMS Delhi.
Expert Insights on the Findings
Dr. Sudhir Gupta, head of the forensic medicine department at AIIMS Delhi, stated that the medical board conducted a meticulous scientific investigation, considering all possible aspects before reaching its conclusion. He emphasized that the detailed opinion is based entirely on scientific grounds, which will be significantly beneficial for the CBI and the judiciary in the pursuit of truth and justice. However, due to court orders, he refrained from sharing further details about the report.
Background of Twisha Sharma's Case
Twisha Sharma married lawyer Samarth Singh in December of the previous year. Tragically, on May 12, her body was discovered hanging in her in-laws' home in Bhopal. According to the FIR filed in the case, Samarth claimed that Twisha had committed suicide by hanging herself around 10:20 PM. However, hospital doctors informed the police that she was brought in dead, prompting them to register a medico-legal case.
Allegations of Domestic Abuse
Twisha's family alleges that she was subjected to mental harassment and domestic violence by her in-laws due to dissatisfaction with the dowry provided during the marriage. They claim that on the night of the incident, Twisha spoke with her mother at 9:41 PM, during which they heard Samarth shouting, and the call was abruptly disconnected. Later, when they managed to get through again, Twisha's retired judge mother-in-law, Giribala Singh, simply stated, 'She is no more,' before hanging up. Following initial investigations that suggested negligence, the family approached the High Court, leading to the case being handed over to the CBI for further inquiry.
