The postmortem report in the Janakpuri biker accident case has revealed shocking details about the death of the man, identified as Kamal. According to sources, Kamal fell into an open trench, following which soil entered his mouth and nose. The postmortem report states that the motorcycle fell on his waist, causing severe breathing difficulties.
The report has concluded that the cause of Kamal's death was traumatic asphyxia and suffocation. Sources said that after falling into the trench, Kamal’s face got stuck in wet soil. At the same time, the weight of the motorcycle on his waist restricted his ability to breathe.
The presence of wet soil in his mouth and nose further led to suffocation.
Besides, a burn injury was found on Kamal’s right thigh, which is suspected to have been caused by the motorcycle’s silencer.
