Sushant case: AIIMS board issues statement; opinion to be 'conclusive with no doubts'

Professor Dr Sudhir Gupta, Head of Forensic Department, AIIMS, who is leading the forensic team in Sushant Singh Rajput death case on Thursday said that the Medical Board's opinion will be given to the CBI next week. "I hope it will be conclusive without any doubts. Reports can't be shared since the matter is subjudice," he told news agency ANI.

This comes a day after sources have informed Republic Media Network that a CBI team will meet the AIIMS forensics body on Thursday to discuss and assess the top medical institute's report on the autopsy of Sushant Singh Rajput. Not ruling out the murder angle, the AIIMS panel earlier had said that it would require two weeks to table the report. Last week, Dr Sudhir Gupta said that the possibility of murder needed to be examined.

Three members from the AIIMS panel also accompanied a CBI team to Sushant's Bandra residence on September 5 along with the late actor's sister Mitu Singh, Siddarth Pithani, cook Neeraj and Keshav. The CBI team was seen recording visuals of the terrace of the building. Three doctors from the AIIMS board in Mumbai went along with the CBI team to Sushant's residence. Officers of the CBI investigating the Sushant Singh Rajput death case will be travelling to Delhi to assess the AIIMS report.
