Summary:
The mother of murdered Scarlett Keeling has returned from India to the UK without her daughter’s organs. The Indian government denied the request of Fiona MacKeown to get the organs of her daughter back. Scarlett's uterus, kidneys, stomach and liver where removed during a post-mortem. The 15-year-old girl was found dead on Anjuna beach in February and the police thought that she died from accidental drowning. They found out in a second post-mortem examination, urged on by the mother, that she was raped and killed after taking ecstasy, cocaine and LSD. Mrs. MacKeown has alleged that police officials have covered up evidence to protect the tourism trade and drugs dealers. Two men have been arrested over the death.
Opinion:
I find it ridiculous that the Indian government is not giving Mrs. MacKeown her daughter’s organs back. If they have a good reason to keep the organs, they should tell her why. This mother had gone through enough already. She was the one who had to fight for a second post-mortem because she could not believe that her daughter’s death was an accident. She turned out to be right. It is not fair that even after all of that Mrs. MacKeown now has to fight for the organs of her little girl. She just wants to burry her daughter, all of her.
