High court orders re-postmortem of BJP leader’s body

Kolkata (IANS) | A single-judge bench of the Calcutta High Court on Wednesday ordered a second post-mortem on the body of Bijoy Krishna Bhunia, BJP booth president from Moyna in West Bengal’s East Midnapore district, at the army-run Command Hospital in Kolkata. Justice Rajasekhar Mantha passed the order after hearing a petition filed by the victim’s family members, seeking the post-mortem of the deceased leader’s body to be conducted at any hospital run by the central government. The family alleges that Bhunia was murdered by workers of the ruling Trinamool Congress.


Bhunia’s body was recovered late on Monday night and his body was sent for post-mortem at a government hospital. Passing the order, Justice Mantha directed the command hospital authorities to form a team of experts to conduct the postmortem. He said that two forensic experts would be able to represent the state government at the time of autopsy. Justice Mantha said that the family members can also be present during the post-mortem, if they so desire.


He directed the command hospital authorities to hand over the post-mortem report to the victim’s family members and Moyna police station. He ordered that the victim’s body be immediately brought to Kolkata from Tamluk Hospital in East Midnapore district.
Ordering Central Armed Forces security cover for four weeks to the victim’s family members, Justice Mantha also directed the state government to submit a report in his court by May 8.


On Wednesday, the counsel for the state government informed the court that Bhunia was killed by a bullet wound to the head. He said that the state government has no objection to conducting post-mortem of the victim’s body for the second time.
Meanwhile, tension continues in Moyna. Sporadic clashes between the police and the agitators are being reported from the area.
