CORONAVIRUS | Concerns over Covid-19 should not be an excuse for delaying the post-mortem of a death-in-custody victim in Bentong, said the group Eliminating Death and Abuse in Custody Together (Edict).

In a statement today, Edict said the remains of a Covid-19 patient should be treated as just another person who had died of infectious disease, and no infection should be an excuse for not performing a post-mortem.
