In Jharkhand Mob Killing, Autopsy Helped Accused Avoid Murder Charges

Murder charges against the men accused in a fatal mob attack on a 24-year-old in Jharkhand in June were dropped because the post-mortem report said he died of a cardiac arrest, the police have said. Amid a controversy over the case chargeheet - details of which have emerged in media reports this month - the police said they have filed charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder against 11 men accused in the attack on 24-year-old Tabrez Ansari. A twelfth accused was arrested on Saturday after he surrendered.
