Medical Board Conducts Exhumation of Dr Shahnawaz Kumbhar’s Body

On October 15, 2024, a medical board in Sindh conducted the exhumation of the body of Dr. Shahnawaz Kumbhar, a well-known physician whose sudden and suspicious death has raised concerns about possible foul play. The exhumation took place in the presence of law enforcement officials, as part of an ongoing investigation aimed at uncovering the true cause of Dr. Kumbhar’s death, which occurred under mysterious circumstances earlier this year.

Dr. Kumbhar’s family had demanded a thorough investigation, citing inconsistencies in the initial medical report. Following the family’s request, the Sindh High Court ordered the formation of a medical board to reassess the case. The board, comprising forensic experts and pathologists, is expected to perform a detailed autopsy to determine whether Dr. Kumbhar’s death was due to natural causes or if there were any signs of foul play involved.

The case has garnered significant media attention, with many calling for justice in what is being perceived as a highly suspicious death. Dr. Kumbhar was a respected figure in his community, and his untimely demise has left many unanswered questions. The findings from the exhumation are expected to play a key role in the investigation, potentially leading to further legal action depending on the results of the forensic analysis.
