Police were convinced he was dead
An Indian man pronounced dead by doctors woke up moments before his post-mortem was due to begin.
The man, thought to be in his late 40s, was found unconscious by police at a bus stop and taken to Sion Hospital in Mumbai, where the man was pronounced dead after his pulse was checked.
Police told Mid-Day that the body was covered with a white cloth while the doctor made a report about the death in the casualty ward diary.
After a person is pronounced dead, their body is kept on the casualty ward for two hours in what is known as a ‘cooling-off’ period.
However the casualty ward was full and the man was sent straight to the morgue, the Hindustan Times reports, where he is understood to have been kept before being taken up to be autopsied.
“The dead man was breathing. We saw his stomach moving up and down,” a hospital staffer who had taken the man up to his post-mortem told Mid-Day.
