Ahmed, a mechanical engineering student was found dead in the hostel of IIT Kharagpur on October 14 last year. The authority of the institute claimed that he died by suicide, while the Ahmed’s family alleged that he was killed.

The family filed a petition in the Calcutta High Court over his unnatural death.

Ahmed was a resident of Assam’s Dibrugarh district.

Recently, the Calcutta High Court ordered the exhumation of the body and a second-post-mortem. After his family gave their consent, Faizan Ahmed’s body was exhumed on Tuesday.

In the presence of a four-member police team from the Kharagpur Town police station in West Bengal, forensics experts from the Assam Medical College and Gauhati Medical College performed the exhumation procedure at the Amolapatty burial place in Dibrugarh town.

The family of the late student, the local police, and magistrate Gautam Priya Mahanta were also present.

The corpse was deposited in the mortuary in Dibrugarh for the night.

On Wednesday, it was taken to Kolkata by the special team officers accompanied by Ahmed’s family.

Meanwhile, it is learnt that a team from IIT Kharagpur was also insistent to be present during the exhumation process, but the family of the deceased student resisted strongly.

The family members told reporters here, “IIT Kharagpur authorities have been trying to derail the investigation.”
