NHRC
) has sought further information from the Rayagada SP in connection with the death of a 32-year-old pregnant woman due to alleged medical negligence two days after release from judicial custody on Jan 12, 2023.
The commission, in a communication on June 24 this year, referred to a complaint filed by Jeypore-based advocate Anup Kumar Patro on Jan 14, 2023. The complainant alleged the woman, who was nine months' pregnant, was arrested during a protest and subsequently denied adequate medical care. He sought NHRC's intervention, citing grave violations of her human rights.
Following earlier directions, NHRC had received and reviewed preliminary reports submitted in the matter.
According to the jail health screening report dated Dec 27, 2022, the woman was 36 weeks' pregnant and suffering from hypertension, with a recorded blood pressure of 150/100 mmHg. She had been prescribed amlodipine, a medication for high blood pressure.
The post-mortem report noted no external injuries but indicated ante-mortem haemorrhage in the brain, suggestive of a puerperal stroke — a known complication of pregnancy-related hypertension.

Uterine changes suggested recent childbirth. However, the commission observed that the post-mortem report was partially illegible, and the exact cause of death had not been clearly established.
A medical expert on the NHRC's panel, upon reviewing the available documents, concluded that it remained unclear whether the woman had received appropriate treatment during custody. The expert requested the complete set of medical treatment records along with a legible copy of the post-mortem report to arrive at a definitive conclusion.
In light of the findings, NHRC has directed the Rayagada SP to submit the required documents within four weeks. The commission has warned that failure to comply will invite coercive action under Section 13 of the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993. The case has been scheduled for further hearing after four weeks.

'I'm not proud': Soham Parekh breaks silence on defrauding companies, says he was forced to do it
Soham Parekh said he had dire financial circumstances that forced him to do three jobs simultaneously. Indian techie Soham Parekh, who has been accused of frauding US companies by working in several companies at the same time, owned up to what he did and said he did that out of dire fiancial circumstances. In TBPN's show, Parekh, who worked in multiple US companies lying to them about his location, admitted that the allegations against him are true but he is not proud of what he has done. "I'm not proud of what I've done. That's not something I endorse either. But no one really likes to work 140 hours a week. I had to do it out of necessity. I was in extremely dire financial circumstances," Parekh said in the interview. "I'm not a very people person. I don't share much about what's going on in my life. So I just thought: if I work multiple places, maybe I can elevate myself out of the situation faster," he said. 'I was decent enough, a good enough engineer' In his first interview amid the major moonlighting controversy, he said he likes to believe that he was decent enough, a good enough engineer, to essentially be able to work at three places because that's the only thing he did the entire day.
