The Goa Medical College and Hospital has constituted a two-member committee of forensic specialists to conduct the post-mortem examination on Bharatiya Janata Party leader Sonali Phogat who passed away at her home in Goa’s Anjuna on Tuesday morning of suspected heart attack.
The post-mortem will be conducted on Wednesday after her family gives the consent, who are scheduled to arrive in the southern state tomorrow.
