The residence of the deceased boy
Kolkata: The preliminary post mortem report of 16-year-old Sarit Ghosh who drowned in a swimming pool at Rabindra Sarobar, read death due to drowning while investigators said they are awaiting a final report to know if the youth has suffered a cardiac arrest. Since the incident, the boy’s family from Panchanantala Road in Dhakuria have lodged a complaint to probe into the circumstances leading to the boy’s death. However, the parents did not name anyone in the complaint. “We are cooperating with the police and have kept the premises shut. Cops have already questioned the six trainers who were on duty at the time of the incident.
The test report will tell us if the boy was suffering from any underlying disease or if he had suffered a cardiac arrest while swimming leading to his death,” said an officer. “We have sent the blood tissue samples and have sent it for histopathological test to confirm the root cause behind his death. Ghosh’s family conducted his cremation on Sunday as they waited for several relatives living in other states like Kerala to come back and pay their homage to the boy.
