The Madhya Pradesh High Court ordered a second autopsy of Sharma’s body by a specialised AIIMS Delhi team. The case saw a spree of developments on Friday, with the State government recommending a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe, two days after Chief Minister Mohan Yadav met Sharma’s family. “In exercise of the powers conferred under Section 6 of the Delhi Special Police Establishment Act, 1946, the Government of Madhya Pradesh hereby gives its consent to extend the powers and jurisdiction of the members of the Delhi Special Police Establishment to the entire State of Madhya Pradesh for the purpose of investigation of the above case,” a notification by the M.P. Home Department said.
