New Delhi: The CBI, probing the death mystery of Rizwanur Rehman, may be still trying to establish if it was a case of murder or suicide, but one man — a mortician — still stands firm in his claim that the 30-year-old graphics designer was murdered.
Dilavar Hussain, the mortician, who had cleaned Rizwanur's body before his burial, says he is convinced that it was a case of murder.
"I have 20 years of experience. Rizwan's body had marks which are generally not there in train accident-related deaths. He had cut marks on his face and neck and in the back. When a body part comes under the train, it’s either sliced or completely crushed," Dilavar says.
He also pointed out that the doctors cut the area between the chest and the abdomen during post-mortem and not the neck or the back.
Talking to Kolkata's The Telegraph newspaper, Dilavar even recounted how the back of Rizwanur's head was completely smashed, but his head had not been severed.
"From the nature of the injuries on his body, it seems that he was hit with a weapon on the back of his head and then his neck was slashed," Dilavar, now 55, told the newspaper. Dilavar works in a coffin shop on Kolkata's Bright Street.
"The back of his head was smashed and there were cut marks on the left side of his neck, his left cheek and on his back. The head was not severed. His left leg was fractured," Dilavar claims.
In fact, the first post-mortem report had also stated that Rizwanur's head had been almost severed.
