FSL report confirms gang-rape

SRINAGAR (SANA): Report of the Forensic Science Laboratory has confirmed gang rape of a teenager and her pregnant sister-in-law in south Kashmir’s Shopian district last week. They said that the report about the cause of death of the victims would be presented to the authorities on Sunday after experts hold deliberations with the team of doctors who conducted the postmortem. “The FSL report confirms the initial postmortem report which had said that the victims were gang raped,” sources added. They said doctors held a closed door meeting with the chief and the deputy chief medical officer, Dr Ghulam Qadir Sofi, Pulwama this afternoon. “Later the report was handed over to the top police officials,” they added. It’s in place to mention here that Dr Sofi had headed the team of doctors which conducted the postmortem of the victims on May 30 after the bodies were recovered. In their initial report, the doctors had stated that Asiya Jan, 16, and her pregnant sister-in-law, Neelofar, had been gang raped. “Doctors had mentioned in their initial report that there were local violent marks on the lower body parts of Asiya and Neelofar. Their body parts were swollen, and there were visible bloodstains.” The initial report had also stated that there were bruises over the bodies of the victims. “Doctors could easily make out that Asiya had been raped as she was unmarried. As Neelofar was pregnant the doctors faced difficultly in establishing gang rape in her case. However, the violent marks over her lower parts made doctors believe that she too was gang raped. But they took her vaginal samples for FSL investigations,” sources said, adding, “ Now the FSL report too has confirmed that she was also gang raped.” A top police official said, “ FIR in this case is likely to be registered on Sunday as doctors have submitted the FSL report.”
