– Handling of dead bodies found at a disaster site involves specific procedures: recovery, documentation, preservation of potential evidence (like ornaments, identification), and handing over to designated authorities (police, medical teams, forensic experts) for identification, post-mortem (if necessary), and dignified final disposal.
– Quick disposal of a decomposed body by security forces alone is not a recognised or acceptable protocol; it requires proper handling, investigation, and coordination with medical and police authorities for identification and health safety reasons.
