Delhi court allows NIA to dispose remains of Red Fort blast victims

The order was passed by principal district and sessions judge Pitamber Dutt of Patiala House Courts while ruling on an NIA application seeking to dispose of biological remains collected from the blast site as part of case evidence.

Public prosecutor Madhav Khurana, appearing for NIA, informed the court that the body parts were decomposing and stored with the forensics unit, adding that their evidentiary value had been fully utilised through forensic analysis, making further preservation unnecessary.

The court order said, “NIA should dispose of the biological body parts of the deceased and the accused with full human dignity and as per their religious belief.”
