More human remains (an intestine and a leg) were found on Monday along with those of the Pawan Hans helicopter that crashed into the Arabian Sea, 30 nautical miles en route to the offshore rig of ONGC Northern Field at Bombay High. The mortal remains were sent to Cooper post-mortem centre; they will soon be sent to the forensic science lab in Kalina for DNA analysis to confirm the identity of the deceased.
