Ponty kiling: 2nd postmortem ordered

November 18, 2012 20:52

An update on the other big story that got mowed down by Bal Thackeray's death -- the killing of Ponty Chadha.

A "botched up" autopsy today led to the deferment of cremation of liquor baron Ponty Chadha with police insisting on a second postmortem and takng the body to AIIMS after doctors informed them that they have not removed three bullets from his body. Ponty was killed along with his brother Hardeep when both sides allegedly opened fire at each other yesterday at a farmhouse in south Delhi's Chhattarpur following a dispute over ownership over the property.

Fifteen people were picked up for questioning in the killing and a guard has been detained.
