Twisha Sharma Latest Update: Post-Mortem Report Confirms Twisha Died by Suicide, Family Alleges Foul Play

The post-mortem report stated that Twisha died by suicide, but her family rejected this and alleged foul play. The court has allowed a second autopsy.

The court approved a second autopsy of Twisha's body after her father's lawyer asked the court to make the case a priority, saying, “time is ticking fast."

However, Giribala Singh’s lawyer, who represents Twisha’s mother-in-law, opposed the request for a second autopsy.

The lawyer argued that doctors at AIIMS had already performed the postmortem and questioned why another was needed.

“It is an insult to the medical fraternity. It reflects their own incompetence and shows they do not trust their own doctors,” the lawyer said in court.

‘Body Must Not Decompose ' General Tushar Mehta defended the doctors who performed the autopsy, but said the family could ask for a second opinion if they thought something was missing.

“The impartiality of the doctors is exemplary. But if the victim’s family feels something is missing, a second opinion can be sought,” he said.

At the same time, Singh’s lawyer argued against delaying the final rites, saying the body should not be allowed to decompose. “She is the daughter-in-law of our family. It is our duty to perform her last rites,” the lawyer said.
