Indian TV Actress Pratyusha Was Pregnant Before Committing Alleged Suicide

As confirmed by the hospital doctors in Mumbai, 24-year-old Indian TV actress Pratyusha Banerjee was pregnant not too long before her alleged suicide on April 2. Doctors revealed she had probably undergone an abortion. A histopathological examination of the tissues from uterus was conducted based on which the revelation was made. The findings show that there was a conception a few days or a month before her demise, and there was a death of the premature foetal cell.

The products of conception or placental or foetal tissue in the uterus found following delivery termination of pregnancy or miscarriage were infected and degenerated. That usually hints towards a secondary infection probably occurring due to attempt to terminate the pregnancy. However, despite the tests doctors are finding it hard to establish the paternity of the foetus. Multiple departments are working simultaneously to determine the cause of actress' death. So far the investigators have preliminary autopsy stating the cause of death as " ligature over the neck with asphyxia". Chemical tests are being conducted to look for traces of poisoning and and samples of her hair, nail and blood are being preserved for DNA analysis.
