Medical experts believed the cremation must have taken place long ago as the body was around 20 days old and it is hazardous for people to keep a body even in deep freezer without embalming. “Decomposition of a body is an unstoppable natural process, though, keeping it in a deep fridge makes the decomposition process only slower. If not cremated for another 15 days, the skin would have start to peel off and soft parts like fingers and toes would have detached from the body,” Dr Sharma added. Anandpal’s body was kept in his home at Sanwrad village as his family members along with supporters had continued to be in the proximity of the body for several days. “To keep the body intact for long time, even after embalming, precautions and care is needed while handling the body,” Dr Sharma further added.
