An Air India official on Tuesday denied before a special court here the claim of 16 December gang rape accused that the coffin in which the body of the victim was flown back to India did not contain 'human remains' and was loaded with 'other things'.
'It is wrong to suggest that instead of human remains some other things were loaded in the box (coffin). The coffin was in sealed condition and in my presence no one had opened it,' the AI official said while deposing as a prosecution witness.
The AI official is posted at the IGI cargo terminal and in his presence the coffin carrying the victim's dead body was unloaded on 29 December, 2012.
He was being cross-examined by accused Mukesh and Akshay's counsel who claimed in the court of Additional Sessions Judge Yogesh Khanna that the coffin which arrived from Singapore Hospital did not contain the victims' body.
'As per the documents, the coffin carried human remains,' the witness said.
