Kolkata: No foul play was found in the primary opinion on the autopsy report of Krishna Bhattacharya, who's decomposed body was recovered on Sunday night from inside her house in Salt Lake.

The autopsy surgeon said Krishna might have died approximately 7-8 days ago.

According to the sources, police have admitted Krishna's son Maitro at Bidhannagar Sub-Divisional Hospital

for treatment.

Hearing his version on Sunday night and Monday, the sleuths suspect he has some psychological issues. To make sure of his mental condition, they will take opinion from a psychiatrist soon.

As police have not found any relatives of Chakraborty family in Kolkata or its adjacent areas till Tuesday night, the body of Krishna has been preserved at R G Kar hospital after the autopsy. On Monday, Maitro wished to have chicken cutlet as he had not eaten anything for the past few days.

Later, police admitted him to Bidhannagar hospital for his health check-up. Sources informed that after his medical check-up if he is found mentally fit then Krishna's body will be handed over to him. If not, then police will submit his medical report to Bidhannagar Court and will appeal for

his treatment.

Maitro also claimed Krishna's one leg somehow got fractured and she was unable to walk and then she died. Though some injury marks could be traced in the autopsy but doctor said those are old and she did not die due to injuries. It is suspected that she had a cardiac arrest. But it cannot be confirmed till the final autopsy report comes. Though Maitro claimed they were Christian, the sleuths had no clues

about it.

During interrogation, he claimed his mother had asked him to bury her after death. To fulfill her wish, he had planned to bury her inside the house and for that he sought help from one Tarun Kumar Porel of Beadon Street, who was a patient of his father Dr Gorachand Bhattacharya. On hearing Maitro, he called the police and reported the incident. Later, police brought Maitro and recovered Krishna's body from her house in Salt Lake.
