The father of the Class XII student has petitioned the Supreme Court with a request that the panel conducting the second round of post-mortem examinations include a doctor of their choosing. The family of the girl has asked for an immediate hearing on the subject. It has been announced that the Supreme Court will hear the case tomorrow. As soon as it was discovered that the girl’s parents couldn’t be reached for the post-mortem examination, the state government of Tamil Nadu contacted the Madras High Court. They were instructed by the high court to conduct the autopsy without the parents’ presence. If the parents showed up, the court instructed the police to allow them to attend. A senior police officer stated that they have asked the dean of Kallakurichi Medical College to do the post-mortem.

The girl appeared to have died from haemorrhage and shock as a result of several injuries, according to a post-mortem performed on July 14. The high court ordered a second autopsy on the Class 12 student on Monday at the request of her father, P Ramalingam, who claimed that there had been foul play. The second post-mortem, according to Justice N Sathish Kumar, must be performed by a group of three doctors selected by the court and must be documented on camera. The autopsy was open to the father and attorney of the girl. Later that day, Ramalingam requested that a doctor of his choosing be added to the autopsy panel, but his request was denied by the high court’s division bench.
