Contradictions in two AIIMS report delayed FIR: Police

New Delhi, Jan 7: Contradictions in two autopsy reports about traces of alprazolam (an anti-depressant), in Sunanda Pushkar's viscera delayed the investigation and registration of the FIR, Delhi Police said Wednesday. Police said there were two reports of autopsy, conducted on Sunanda's body by the board of three doctors at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Jan 18, 2014. The first report ruled out the possibility of alprazolam in her viscera while the final report which came in September suggested alprazolam poisoning. "Both the reports mentioned traces of poisoning but the substance was not made clear. Prima facie, it was suspected to be a case of overdose of alprax tablets consumed by Pushkar as empty strips of alprax tablets were recovered from her hotel room, but first report ruled it out," an official told IANS. The second report talked of alprazolam poisoning, he said.
