Her body was sent for a post-mortem on Monday. The family members claimed that when the body was handed over to them, the eyes were removed. The family members alleged that the eyes were removed during the post-mortem.

The family members of the deceased approached the District Magistrate and demanded strict action against the doctor and the staff members, alleging that they were involved in organ trafficking.

“The victim’s family members met me and made a complaint for taking action. A probe has been ordered, and the post-mortem will be done again. Strict action will be taken if anyone is found guilty,” Kumar said.

Chief Medical Officer Pradeep Varshney said the District Magistrate ordered the second post-mortem to be videographed and a report to be submitted to him.
