According to a Mumbai Mirror report, during cross examination on January 27, 2015, in Salman Khan's hit and run case, expert witness Dr Suhas Pawar indicated that the 6ml blood sample that he had extracted was not properly preserved, and it may have fermented to produce alcohol.
The doctor said to Mirror that he had extracted 6ml of blood and put 3ml each in test tubes before sealing them. One of these test tubes had preservatives while the other one was empty.
The defence led by advocate Shrikant Shivde then asked him if the absence of preservative would lead to fermentation of blood and production of alcohol, to which he replied in the affirmative, the report stated.
The doctor also said that keeping the blood sample without refrigeration within two days may lead to decomposition. The report further stated that the witness will continue to be cross examined on January 31.
Earlier the doctor had revealed to Mirror that Salman was not under the influence of alcohol. Read further to know more...
