Postmortem of the bodies of 18 people who died in the plane crash of Solar Airlines has been completed. The University Teaching Hospital is preparing to start the body identification process on Friday morning and hand over the identified bodies to the families. The family members of the deceased are adamant that the body will not be recovered until the insurance and airline compensation is settled.

Head of Forensic Department of Maharajgunj University Teaching Hospital Dr. According to Gopal Chaudhary, there is no problem in identifying the bodies of one woman and one child out of 18 bodies. "It seems that the other 12 bodies can be identified according to the details given by the family," he said, "Four bodies may be difficult to identify because of the fire." According to Chaudhary, the body is identified based on the details given by the family about the clothes, gadgets carried, tattoos on the body or injuries. If a surgery has been done, it is easy to recognize based on its details. If someone has undergone dental treatment, it is easy to identify the dead body from its details. "If there is a photo of the deceased smiling so that his teeth are visible, we have asked him to provide that too," said Dr. Choudhary said, "Even though you see all the teeth as the same, we see them differently. DNA matching is used only as a final method of body identification. It is also difficult to collect samples for DNA testing. On top of that, it takes 12 days to get the results of the test,' said Dr. Chowdhury said, "As far as possible, we prefer the method of identifying the dead body without DNA testing."

Forensic expert Dr. Under the leadership of Chaudhary, more than 25 doctors and health workers, including those from Patan Institute of Health Sciences and Bhaktapur District Hospital, were engaged in the post-mortem. Dr. According to Choudhary, the cause of death should not be found in the post-mortem as the plane crashed, but it takes a lot of time for the body to be handed over to the relatives. We are trying to hand over the identified bodies to the families by 4 o'clock tomorrow (Friday), Dr. Chaudhary said. 

The relatives and family members of those who lost their lives in the plane crash have demanded the Minister of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation Badri Pandey and Accountable Manager of Sourya Airlines Gopal Bhattarai to settle the insurance and reasonable compensation amount before handing over the bodies. Minister Pandey and Accountable Manager of Airlines Bhattarai reached the Trivi Teaching Hospital on Thursday to meet the relatives of the deceased. At that time, the relatives of the deceased said that they will not remove the body until the compensation is decided.

They expressed their anger saying that no senior officials of Solar Airlines have come to meet or console them since the crash. "Even when the airline's employees had an accident, the company did not even issue a condolence message, let alone come to visit," said a relative Sourya Airlines was alleging neglect of the family of the deceased. They also said that they are ready to file a complaint with the police to investigate as a criminal case if the airlines do not respond to their demands properly. During the discussion, Bhattarai, representative of the airline, informed that after the accident, the company has started discussions with the insurance company through its legal representative for proper insurance.

We have hired a lawyer to talk to the insurance company about our employees having an accident while at work. We will talk about it to get as much insurance as possible,'' he said. So let's not say that amount.

The relatives of the deceased demanded that the high-ranking officials of the airlines come to the discussion who can make a decision. Minister Pandey assured that an agreement will be made by Friday afternoon. On the initiative of Minister Pandey, a discussion will be held at the hospital between the ministry, high representatives of the airlines and relatives of the deceased before 2 pm on Friday.
