As the post-mortem examination
report says the cause of death of 19-year-old E Ilavarasan of Dharmapuri
district was a head injury and police sources claiming it s a suicide
case, the Madras High Court will view on Tuesday the video recording of
post-mortem of the Dalit youth to decide whether or not a second autopsy
should be ordered.

bench comprising Justices V Dhanapalan and CT Selvam passed the interim
order which also directed that the body of E Ilavarasan be preserved
till further order, on a petition filed by his friend Ramesh seeking a
second post-mortem.
The bench said it would view the video recording in the presence of Dr V Dekal, a forensic expert, a doctor of the petitioner`s choice, a doctor from the premier central health institute JIPMER in Puducherry and one of the doctors who performed the first post-mortem on July 5 in the Dharmapuri Government Medical College Hospital.
