After the sudden demise of legendary Indian actor Nana Patekar in Goa, local authorities have initiated mandatory procedural formalities to formally establish the circumstances surrounding his passing. The Panaji Police Department registered an Unnatural Death case under relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita.

The Goa Police registered an unnatural death case as part of mandatory legal protocol because the 75-year-old actor was brought dead to the emergency casualty ward of Manipal Hospital in Bambolim. Standard medico-legal guidelines dictate that when a hospital receives a patient in a deceased state from a private residence, law enforcement must record an official case and conduct preliminary inquiries.

Where Was Post-Mortem Examination Performed For Nana Patekar?

Medical specialists performed the post-mortem examination at Goa Medical College in Bambolim to confirm the exact cause of death. Attending doctors reported that veteran actor Nana Patekar suffered a fatal cardiac arrest at his Dona Paula residence and could not be revived despite extensive CPR efforts prior to hospital arrival. Authorities later handed over Nana Patekar’s mortal remains to his family to complete final legal procedures.

Panaji station officers recorded statements from family members and domestic staff to document events leading to Nana Patekar’s hospital transfer. Following the completion of formal autopsy procedures, authorities handed over his mortal remains to his family. This permitted his son Malhar Patekar and loved ones to transport him for final rites, which were performed with full state honours in Pune.
