With the retrieval of Dr Payal Tadvi's suicide note from her mobile phone on Thursday, investigation into her suicide has moved one step ahead. Her husband, Dr Salman Tadvi, has claimed that the three accused doctors must have unblocked her phone using her numerical password to delete the note. As they all worked together in the gynaecology department of Nair Hospital, the accused knew her password, which they used to delete evidence, he said.
The police had given Dr Payal's mobile phone to the Kalina Forensic Laboratory for forensic analysis where the deleted note was retrieved. The investigating team had so far been unable to find the suicide note, thus enabling the defence lawyer to make a stronger argument. On Thursday, however, the investigating team handed over details of her suicide note in a sealed envelope with a nine-page report to the Bombay High Court which was hearing the bail application of the three accused doctors who are in judicial custody.
