Delhi Police Special Cell Inspector died of 'heart-attack': doctors
		
New Delhi, Sep 21 (PTI) Delhi Police Special Cell Inspector Mohan
Chand Sharma, died of "heart-attack" as a result of excessive bleeding
after being shot "twice" during the Jamia Nagar encounter with
suspected Indian Mujahideen terrorists on Friday, hospital sources
said today. "Analysis of reports given by Holy Family Hospital and our
initial findings points out that the officer died of heart attack
arising out of excessive blood loss," a senior doctor said.
The sources said no bullets were found in the body, clearly indicating
that "the shots were fired from a very close range." According to
doctors, there was an initial X-ray done on Sharma soon after he was
brought to the Holy Family hospital which did not reveal any bullets
lodged in the body.

"During our post-moterm too, we have not found any bullets," they said.

Doctors say that since Sharma who was part of "Dirty Harry Squad" of
the Special Cell had four gun-shot injuries on his body, "in all
probability, he was hit by just two bullets which pierced through the
body." As per the medical bulletin of the Holy Family hospital, the
officer had received injuries on his left shoulder, left upper arm,
left upper abdomen and right hip.

When asked to specify from which part of the body did the bullet enter
and exit, a senior doctor said, "Study of the passage of bullets show
that one could have entered from the left shoulder and exited from the
left upper arm and the other from the abdomen and then the hips.

"At this moment I cannot specifically say what were the entry and exit
points of the bullets. It could be the other way round also." PTI
