They demanded immediate arrest of all the accused and security for themselves, police said. The doctors, who had taken part in the strike called by the PMM Association, have all resumed work from today, Kanpur Dehat CMO Karan Singh said.

According to police, Chandra's post-mortem report mentions excessive bleeding caused by a cut from a sharp weapon as the reason for death. The features described by the courier company employees match with that of the accused woman. She was in her mid-twenties and wearing a salwar kameez, he said.
