Woman’s body taken to hospital in garbage dumping vehicle in MP

Bhopal:  In yet another shocking incident, a woman’s dead body was taken for post-mortem in a garbage dumping vehicle in Madhya Pradesh’s Ashok Nagar district.

The body of a woman, who allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself at her residence in Pathar Mohalla in Ashok Nagar, was taken to the hospital by her family in a tractor-trolley. However, after one of the wheels of the trolley was sheared off mid-way, the dead body was taken to the hospital in municipality’s garbage dumping vehicle.

Terming the incident “intolerable”, Chief Minister Kamal Nath has called for a strict action against the people accused of negligence.
