Woman’s body exhumed
LARKANA, May 17: A medical board consisting of Prof Anwar Akhund, Dr Mir Mohammed Sahito and a lady medical officer from the People’s Medical College Nawabshah exhumed the body of Samina Jatoi, wife of Sher Mohammed Jatoi, from a graveyard in Naudero on Saturday.
They did so in the presence of the magistrate and Samina’s relatives.
The director general, Health, Sindh, had constituted the committee on the request of Samina’s father, Ghulam Rasool Mashori.
The members of the board collected certain samples from the body including bones so as to determine whether the woman died of natural causes or was murdered (as her father suspected).
The district officer administration (health), Dr Khalil Ahmed Katpar, said that the board would submit its findings within a fortnight or so.
Samina’s husband had allegedly gagged her to death on Feb 18 in the Mato Jatoi village in the jurisdiction of the Garilo police station.—Correspondent
