April 02, 2013 19:14

An Air India official today denied before a special court here the claim of December 16 gang rape accused that the coffin in which the body of the victim was flown back to India did not contain "human remains" and was loaded with "other things".

"It is wrong to suggest that instead of human remains some other things were loaded in the box (coffin). The coffin was in sealed condition and in my presence no one has opened it," the AI official said while deposing as a prosecution witness.

The AI official is posted at the IGI cargo terminal and in his presence the coffin carrying the victim's dead body was unloaded on December 29, 2012.
