AIMAN INAM

MUMBAI: Sources privy to Newspakistan.tv here have received a piece of  information direct from the horse’s mouth!

It has been reported that Oshiwara police station has registered the case of accidental death subsequent to the post-mortem report of Om Puri.

When police entered Puri’s abode on Friday, he was found lying on the ground bearing a sharp wound on his skull, stated police personnel.

The victim also wanted to meet his special child, 16, who is residing with his ex-wife Nandita.

Apropos to this, a statement quoted Puri’s friend Khalid Kidwai as saying: “Om Puri wanted to meet his son Ishan on Thursday evening. So we (Kidwai and Om Puri) went to Trishul building where his ex-wife Nandita lives with Ishan but were unable to meet them as both Nandita and Ishan had gone for a party.

Om Puri then had an argument over the phone with Nandita and asked them to come soon as he wanted to meet his son but unfortunately, it did not happen.”

The police has already started their investigations to probe this matter. However, the statement of Nandita is yet to be recorded.
