Patna, Dec 27 (TheBiharPost/IBNS): Stray dogs eat away parts of the body of a foreign tourist kept outside the postmortem room in Bihar hospital, prompting the authorities to order a probe.

The woman who hailed from Bhutan was crossing the road in Begusarai district when she came under the wheels of a speeding truck, resulting in her instantaneous death, police said.

Subsequently, her body was taken the local hospital for postmortem but the stray dogs were seen eating away parts of her body.

Taking the matter seriously, Bihar Health Minister Tej Pratap Yadav has asked the district health authorities to submit an explanation within 48 hours.

The police department, meanwhile, has suspended four cops on the charge of dereliction of duty. The cops were deployed in the security of the body.

The victim, 53, was on her way to Bodh Gaya in Gaya district to attend Kalchakra Puja of Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama, scheduled to be held in January when she met with an accident.
