The kidnapped victim Andrea Bharatt was hit with a blunt object on her forehead which caused her to fall over. The impact resulted in a broken skull and internal bleeding.
This is according to the activist Inshan Ishmael, who together with two other persons covered the cost of a private autopsy.
An autopsy performed at the Forensic Science Center on Monday could not determine how Bharatt died.
The second autopsy was performed by Professor Hubert Daisely at Boodoo’s Funeral Home in Cunupia.
Ishmael said he wanted the thousands of people who support Bharatt and her family to know the truth, and revealed the findings of the autopsy this afternoon in a live video on social media.
He said: “As we promised yesterday, I was not satisfied with the unconvincing report we received from the pathologist yesterday regarding such a thing. In fact, I said yesterday that it is unlikely to me that the report a few days can be unconvincing. ‘
The findings were made public to Bharatt’s father before they were made public, he said.
Ishmael said: ‘I can tell you that Professor Daisley’s report is not unconvincing and that he found the reason for her death. Andrea was hit on the forehead with a blunt forehead which caused her to fall back and break her skull, causing bleeding inside. Throughout the inside of the skull you could see a pinkish reddish color … She died of bleeding inside. ‘
Ishmael said the pathologist also found drill wounds to Barmatt’s arm. According to him, however, Daisely could not say whether the wounds were caused during the first autopsy.
Samples were taken to determine if Bharrat was sexually assaulted.
He said an examination of her stomach indicated that Bharatt had not been fed or eaten in the hours before her death.
“This is not my child and I feel like I’m going through trauma. I want Mr Bharatt to know that we stand with him and will support him through this,” he said.
The Express was informed that both reports, the autopsy done by the State and privately, would be admissible in the case.
