Mumbai, 7-Sep-2020

A five-member medical board of forensic experts of AIIMS, set up to look into the medical files in Sushant Singh Rajput death case, is conducting viscera test to check for any signs of poisoning. The report will come within 10 days, said Dr Sudhir Gupta, Head of Forensic Department at AIIMS and Chairman of medical board formed to assist CBI in medical investigation in the actor's death case. The forensic board was formed by the AIIMS last week to look into the medical files related to Rajput's death, after the CBI approached the hospital for assistance. Earlier Gupta, who is leading the team, said that the board will evaluate the injury pattern on Rajput's body and correlate it with circumstantial evidence. "The preserved viscera will be examined and the anti-depressants that were given to Rajput will also be analysed at the AIIMS laboratory".
