Click to play videoAhmedabad: The chilling story of Kausar Bano was one of the worst that came out of the Gujarat riots.
It is said that the womb of the pregnant woman was slit apart, the foetus taken out with a sword, cut into pieces and burnt alive.
But earlier this month, a government doctor said it's all lies, that her body bore no injury marks and her foetus intact when the post-mortem was conducted.
Now, riot survivors have filed an application challenging that. One riots survivor claims it all happened before her own eyes.
"They removed her baby from her stomach and held at a sword's edge. And then they burnt her body completely. How come the doctor can say that he conducted a post-mortem on Kausar Bano's body," said a riots survivor Naroda Patiya.
"How could he recognize her," asked Patiya.
The applicants have submitted photographs of badly charred bodies to drive home the point that there was no way Kausar's body could have been identified.
Raju Shaikh, advocate for victims said, "the post-mortem was originally conducted on an unidentified body. How was Kausar Bano's name given to it ? Who identified it and how? Even SIT has not said that it was Kausar Bano's body."
Victims are also asking why it took over eight years for a doctor to say that Kausar Bano's body bore no external injury marks.
