DUBAI: The mysterious death of Bollywood star Sridevi will be probed further.
Following the completion of post-mortem analysis, Dubai police Monday said the 54-year-old Indian actress Sridevi drowned in her hotel apartment’s bathtub after losing consciousness.
“Dubai Police has transferred the case to Dubai Public Prosecution, which will carry out the regular legal procedures followed in such cases,” Dubai Police tweeted.
According to the autopsy report issued this morning, Sridevi’s death was because of “accidental drowning.”
Advocate Yamini Rajesh, who is a lawyer in the UAE, told Arab News that the police have referred this case to the court because they have found “something wrong.”
“Most probably, the body will be released after the judgment. And the public prosecution may question Boney Kapoor (her husband) for further investigation. He may have to stay in Dubai for a while,” she added.
Kapoor, a film producer and director, was the last person to see the actress alive.
According to the initial statement from the family, Sridevi died because of cardiac arrest.
A famous Indian businessman, Mukesh Ambani, has sent his chartered plane for repatriation of the dead body.
Indian authorities and claimants of Sridevi’s mortal remains are awaiting certificates from local officials before they start the process of repatriation, at least two officials have confirmed.
Sridevi died here late Saturday evening. She was in the city to attend a wedding and was joined by her husband Boney Kapoor and daughter Khushi.
